Package: dicod
Version: 2.11-2+b3
Severity: important
Affects: dico-module-mediawiki
Tags: patch
Usertags: pca.it-communication
Hi there,
after the `load python` bug[1], I tried to configure some WikiMedia
databases using the `dicod`-commented M4 macros, without success:
```
root@harlock:~# /usr/bin/dicod --stderr -f
dicod: Error: /etc/dicod.conf:136.11-11: stray character `
dicod: Error: /etc/dicod.conf:136.14-14: stray character '
dicod: Error: /etc/dicod.conf:137.3-3: stray character `
dicod: Error: /etc/dicod.conf:137.20-20: stray character '
root@harlock:~#
```
[1] <https://bugs.debian.org/1028487>
NB, plain non-macro configurations as the ones in the
`dico-module-mediawiki`'s README.Debian allowed `dicod` to start.
In fact, after having read the `dico` upstream manual[2] I discovered
that for whatever reason (I am not an M4 neither a `dico` expert) the
wrong quoting characters ` and ' where used instead of [ and ][3],
albeit according to the M4 manual[4] ` and ' are indeed the M4 default
quoting characters.

<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66738638/how-should-i-escape-a-comma-inside-the-arguments-to-esyscmd#70503189>
[4] <https://www.gnu.org/software/m4/manual/m4.html#Quoted-strings>
Thus, replacing `' with [] in the `wikipedia` and `wiktionary` M4
macro definitions was the first step to get something working, albeit
to have everything OK I could not be able to keep the `wiktionary` and
`wiktionary` macro names, attached the full patch.
However, two final notes:
1. the snippets in `dico-module-mediawiki`'s README.Debian are IMHO
useless if `dicod.conf` contains commented M4 macros.
2. I would go for a even more generic MediaWiki M4 macro and not 2
different ones, as shown in the included `/etc/dicod.conf`.
Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
