Package: emacs-goodies-el
Version: 33.6ubuntu1
Severity: normal

M-x dict reports return codes 20 & 21 from dict, which are not really
errors, since they mean “no match” or “approximate match only”.

This also results in the creation of tens of dict buffers most
containing just an error message.

As far as I can see, this is because dict-make-sentinel-with-buffer
tests the output of the process for “finished”, which it does not
contain when no definition is found; e.g.:

No definitions found for "food"

Process dict exited abnormally with code 20

A better strategy would seem to be to test the return code; less than
20 indicates success, and less than 30 indicates (broadly speaking) no
match; greater than or equal to 30 indicates some sort of error.
