Now you would have to run "make install" (which automatically
done by fink when you build using a stardict.info file and "fink
install"). Depending on what you chose for a prefix, you will
have to run the command as "sudo make install".

 Sorry, I don't know any prefixes. What do you suggest?

If you run simply "make install", then standard Unix programs will
use the default prefix of /usr/local and install into /usr/local/
bin, /usr/local/share, /usr/local/lib and so on. If you want to
install somewhere else, for example /tmp/stardict, you run "make
install prefix=/tmp/stardict".

Hmmm. Well, there were no error messages during the 'sudo make
install' and 'fink install stardict-2.4.6', but now when I try to
start StarDict, I get the following response:

$ stardict

(stardict:15140): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

Any ideas???

Cheers,

Brian


Yup--it's an X11 application so you have to have X11 running.  If
you're using Apple's X11 you can use "open-x11 stardict"

Yes! The website provides instructions for dictionary installation as follows:

tar -xjvf a.tar.bz2
mv a /usr/share/stardict/dic

I assume that in X11/OS X, the path should be:

/sw/share/stardict/

and then I need to create the "dic" folder with a 'mkdir'?

I have tried this ($ cd /sw/share/stardict/) , but the app doesn't seem to find the dictionaries in dic. I just dropped the dictionaries from my Downloads folder into "dic" and then authenticated.

Cheers,

Brian
