Package: emacs-goodies-el
Version: 33.6ubuntu1
Severity: normal

I note that dictionary.el suffers from the same problem. However, it’s
superior in other ways; not least in that it contains its own dict
client, and doesn’t rely on the command-line one. It’s also got a
rather richer UI.

I’d rather fix the problem there. Emacs doesn’t really need two
supported dictd clients in Debian; how about retiring dict.el?
