Subject: gnome-utils: Limited list pre-configured
of dictionaries Package: gnome-utils Version: 2.14.0-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: l10n This problem was introduced with the latest version of the gnome dictionary applet. The previous version had a comprehensive list of dictionaries to choose from. This is no longer the case for no obvious reason. The interface has changed but the new interface can accommodate the old complete list. Moreover, trying to add a new "source" as it is called in the new "Preferences" dialog is a mystery. There are some dropdown lists but with nothing to choose from. I tried a few values I guessed but could not get the applet to work with any new source I add. I am particularly interested in the English-Arabic and Arabic-English (was not there before but there was a "translating dictionaries" that did the trick) dictionaries. English-Arabic dictionary does exist on the dict.org server. Another unexpected problem is that once a source is added it cannot be edited. It has to be removed and then re-added! -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages gnome-utils depends on: ii e2fslibs 1.39-1 ext2 filesystem libraries ii gconf2 2.14.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.1-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-6 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libavahi-client3 0.6.11-1 Avahi client library ii libavahi-common3 0.6.11-1 Avahi common library ii libavahi-glib1 0.6.11-1 Avahi glib integration library ii libbonobo2-0 2.14.0-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.14.0-3 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.2.0-3 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-2 0.62-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libesd-alsa0 [libesd0] 0.2.36-3 Enlightened Sound Daemon (ALSA) - ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-7 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.2.1-2 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgconf2-4 2.14.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgcrypt11 1.2.2-3 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglade2-0 1:2.5.1-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.10.3-3 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2 2.14.2-2 Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnome-keyring0 0.4.9-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.14.1-2 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.14.0-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeprint2.2-0 2.12.1-6 The GNOME 2.2 print architecture - ii libgnomeprintui2.2-0 2.12.1-4 GNOME 2.2 print architecture User ii libgnomeui-0 2.14.1-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.14.2-1 GNOME virtual file-system (runtime ii libgnutls13 1.4.1-1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libgpg-error0 1.2-1 library for common error values an ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.18-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhal1 0.5.7-2 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libice6 1:1.0.0-3 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liborbit2 1:2.14.0-2 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpanel-applet2-0 2.14.2-1 library for GNOME 2 panel applets ii libpango1.0-0 1.12.3-1+b1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5.2 PNG library - runtime ii libpopt0 1.10-2 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 1:1.0.0-4 X11 Session Management library ii libstartup-notification0 0.8-1 library for program launch feedbac ii libtasn1-2 1:0.2.17-2 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii libx11-6 2:1.0.0-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1.1.5.2-5 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.0-4 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:3.0.1.2-4 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 1:1.0.0-5 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.26.dfsg-3 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.1.0.2-4 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-4 X Rendering Extension client libra ii scrollkeeper 0.3.14-11 A free electronic cataloging syste ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnome-utils recommends: ii gksu 1.9.2-1 graphical frontend to su -- no debconf information |
