Has anyone else noticed that calling the MW dictionary by pressing
Alt-F2 (in KDE) and entering dict:<word> no longer works? At first I
thought this problem might have come in with recent updates, but it also
occurs on a system that has not been updated. When you try to use dict,
you get an error message like this:
