Well. Looking at how dictd could implement dpkg-triggers, and proposing a patch to that effect in #1121960 would be great. Without looking deeply into this (or testing whatsoever), it looks like it's a matter of dictd adding `interest-noawait /usr/share/dictd/` as trigger, and add a "triggered" case in dictd postinst that restarts dictd. With this, all packages installing files in /usr/share/dictd will trigger a restart of dictd (once only per package installation). Best, OdyX
