This is the qmail-send program at gentoo.org. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. <michael@dev.gentoo.org>: 64.5.62.82 does not like recipient. Remote host said: 550 unknown user Giving up on 64.5.62.82. [...] # Dictionaries are listed below. # The initrc script scans /usr/lib/dict and adds all of the dictionaries # it finds here. # # The initrc script will delete everything after the the last line and # replace it with what it finds. So add all of your things above. # # If this is a problem for people, contact me and # we can work out a different method. Hello Michael, as you wrote in the initrc script, I send you an email about my problem. That the script automaticly searchs for dictionaries is a good idea. But when I want to change something, for example the name of the dictionary, I have a problem. For example I put my dic. into /usr/lib/dict and write the needed line above the 'lastline'. Now I restart the dictd. After this I will have the database twice in my list. One entry of my lines and one of the automaticly generated. In an other way, I move all dic. into a different folder and configure my lines. That 's ok, but now I haven't any dic. in /usr/lib/dict and the initrc script find no dictionaries in that folder. So it stop - even if I have configurated my dic. above 'lastline'. What do you think about changing the initrc-scipt in a way that it checks before adding a dic. if it is already installed. And that it starts even if there are no dics to add automaticly. Ciao, Henning Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.see details 2. 3. Actual Results: see details Expected Results: see details I tried to contact the author of the initrc script as he wished. But his email failed. So I send it as a bug. I hope this is right. robbat2@gentoo.org 2003-09-27 03:16:15 0000 wrangler: i don't do dictd. looking in the cvs history there was once a developer 'tadpol' that wrote it up. Dunno who he is, or what became of him, he ain't listed anywhere else. absinthe@gentoo.org 2004-02-08 23:05:56 0000 The init script for dictd currently does this. Fixed
