            Bug ID: 518330
           Summary: Please update the dictionaries!
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kiten
      Version First 22.12.3
       Reported In:
          Platform: Debian stable
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR

Hello!

After many years of using Kiten, I have just realized, that the dictionaries
that are installed with Kiten are 15 years old!
This is a problem, because as I haven't, probably no one actually checks this
and 15 years is a long time.
(Granted, the fundamentals won't change much.)

Based on:
https://github.com/KDE/kiten/tree/master/data

Though it is not clear, when the following were last updated, they are very
likely more recent than 2011:
https://www.edrdg.org/wiki/KANJIDIC_Project.html
https://www.edrdg.org/wiki/Edict_Overview.html

What I would like to ask you to do is to download the kanjidic and edict files
from these links and update the Kiten repo with them.
If you have or can find a newer version, then please use those.

(I have tested these files and they seem to work with Kiten.
Debian 12, Kiten 22.12.3)

See this for more info:
https://github.com/yomidevs/jmdict-yomitan

I'm not sure if jmdict is newer than edict or how to convert them to one
another.

Thanks.
