><i> I keep updating URLs and SOURCEs - the initial bug-request was there
</I>><i> <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3035">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3035</A> (I have reviewed
</I>><i> initially 2,500 source-packages).
</I>1) stardict does not appear in the list
2) why maintainers are not been contacted for all those problems ?
><i> So what do you think about the future of StarDICT? I was looking at
</I>><i> the projects and I'm a little bit affraid of the licenses and patents.
</I>><i> For example GoldenDict is said to support Babylon - and this can be
</I>><i> problematic with patents.
</I>><i>
</I>For me StarDict is a dead project and I was looking for a successor.
There is no information on the "copyright infringement" and the tarball
that can be downloaded on the new site are exactly the same as the old
ones !
So the first possibility is: there was truly a copyright problem and
there is still (this may be proved in the future if the copyright owner
ask to close again the project) ; second possibility: there was no
copyright problem (but a more obscure one), but, still, the project is
not very active.
So if GoldenDict present, at this time, no license or patent problem and
is actively developed : it can be a better choice.
Import freeze for mageia 2 will be in march, so I think we have a little
time to think about it to choose the best solution for mageia 2 and test
it (bugs...) before release.
Let's take the week for discussion.
><i> you reviewed the dicts if they are legally used?
</I>I checked for almost all dict : they are GPL or "Creative Commons
Attribution-ShareAlike Licence (V3.0)". Just 1 as to be modified
(quick-deu-eng) or simply removed. I'll do that in the week.
I think url information may not be good, but I did not see the point of
rebuilding 200 packages just for that (taking into account the fact that
dictionaries are not code : they do not evolve).
