ubuntu9.10自带字典（Dictionary 2.28.1）配置本地词库

http://forum.ubuntu.org.cn/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=243955&start=0

用ubuntu没有个字典很不方便，看到系统有自带的就不想试什么星际译王了，在网上找了下，方法如下：

首先安装词库：（那个各户断和服务器端不知道是不是必要的，我因为刚开始是用不了所以就都装了）

sudo apt-get install dict 客户端 （完后修改/etc/dictd/dict.conf来控制只从本地读字典，注释掉后面的服务器地址）
sudo apt-get install dictd 服务器端
sudo apt-get install dict-xdict dict-stardic 这两个是英汉字典的数据文件，翻译结果差不多。
sudo apt-get install dict-gcide 这个15M多的英文字典翻译结果很全，推荐安装。

然后“编辑”－“首选项”－“添加”，主机名添“127.0.0.1 ”，端口不变(2628)，描述随便填个，其中的主机名网上很多都是填“localhost”，但是不能用，看了下外国朋友的网页，说是新版有个错误问题要填127.0.0.1替代localhost才可以。外文链接http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=145949

HOWTO: use gnome-dictionary offline (& faster)

---

As a teacher, I find that gnome-dictionary and its applet are useful tools. But at first it was much too slow and required Internet access. Here are steps to install a database of definitions on your system so that gnome-dictionary works much faster and without Internet access.

1. Install the packages dictd, dict-gcide, and dict-wn.
-- dictd is the dictionary database "server" of sorts
-- dict-gcide is a comprehensive free English dictionary
-- dict-wn is another dictionary with more up-to-date definitions, but it is not comprehensive

2. Install other dictionary packages you might want
-- Look in Synaptic at the many packages under  dict- and read their descriptions. If you want to download all the dictionaries, you can just get the metapackage  dict-freedict. I avoided this option because I did not want to clutter my definition screen or to wait while the program searched all these extra dictionaries I'd rarely (if ever) use.
--  dict-moby-thesaurus is available if you want a thesaurus, too. 

3. Change the preferences in gnome-dictionary.
-- Applications > Dictionary opens gnome-dictionary
-- Edit > Preferences
-- change server to  localhost
-- change the Database to "search all databases"

4. work in progress: Change the order in which definitions appear
-- The file /etc/dictd/dictd.order apparently controls the order in which definitions are searched, the order in which they appear, or maybe both. I want the up-to-date definition (from wn) to be listed first when they are available, so I changed my order to "wn gcide web1913..." It does not appear to have made any difference -- the old-fashioned definition still appears first.
