Maybe Python? Don't know. I don't install MaemoDict that often, on a fresh machine. Uninstalling and reinstalling, installing other version, all that is no problem. All the time using app-installer-tool > Another thing: > In one of your prev files you mentioned some 'dict.dz' files > did you mean dict.gz?
