Hence there arises a need for an offline dictionary GUI and database Suggestion:- I would like artha and wordnet to be added to the distribution Even if the inclusion of above is not possible we are open for inclusion of any other Offline Dictionary/Thesaurus database & GUI Discussion: #1: Mustafaa al-Hamdaani (mustafa1987) (2011-04-10 11:12:20) I agree, dictionaries are very important (especially for non-English speakers #2: Ricardo Gabriel Berlasso (rgbsuse) (2011-07-23 20:08:39) For me, WordNet is a must-to-have tool. Fortunately it have very few dependencies so I can install the fedora package without problems (I need to manually create a menu entry, though). #3: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) (2011-07-26 11:39:07) Anybody interested in packaging these? #4: Atri Bhattacharya (badshah400) (2011-07-29 01:33:29) (reply to #3) I am currently packaging both artha and wordnet. Wordnet has already been submitted to the Education obs project for review and artha will be submitted soon. + #5: Atri Bhattacharya (badshah400) (2011-07-29 18:44:37) + I don't know if the specfic request is to get the two packages artha + and wordnet into the Oss repositories or if any repository would do. + Both packages are now in the Education repo, and I have submitted them + to Factory for review as well. Based on this, the feature may now be + considered done. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312189
