Description Vladislav Dudar 2024-09-25 12:51:22 UTC
On my Gentoo amd64 system all app-dict/freedict-* install files into the wrong location (aka /usr/lib64/dict), when its reverse dependency app-text/dictd, for which these dictionaries are made, expects them to be in /usr/share/dict. I don't have access to a i686 or any other 32-bit Gentoo machine for testing, so I can't check what happens on a 32-bit host.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --verbose app-dicts/freedict-eng-{fra,ita,swe} freedict-deu-eng freedict-fra-eng freedict-ita-eng (the --verbose parameter allows you to see where exactly files are being installed)
Actual Results:  
See how the dictionaries are being installed in /usr/lib64/dict, and if you then do a ls /usr/lib64/dict they are indeed there, not in /usr/share/dict where they're supposed to be.

Expected Results:  
The dictionaries get installed into /usr/share/dict.

A workaround is to mv /usr/lib64/dict/* /usr/share/dict.
