Moving to UBports now
-
I updated the OpenStore app in the E4.5 and now the search works better. I could install sensorstatus from there.
KnownDict is here https://launchpad.net/knowndict but I have to look for a click pkg...
-
@guru in the meanwhile you can use https://open-store.io/app/com.ubuntu.developer.majster-pl.translator-app for Chinese
-
KnownDict was running as an app on my OWA15 device and have had support for the so called StarDict files, i.e. for dictionary files in that format. I own a Spanish dictionary of around 100.000 words. This is not to translate from, for example, Spanish to English, but to get the correct spelling and explanations of a given word, and examples of the usage. I really miss that. I will write an email to the old list, maybe someone has a backup of the click package...
-
@guru I have good memories of knowndict as well! Seems its enough to
bzr branch lp:knowndict cd knowndict clickable --sdk 16.04I get through the wizard. But I cant remember anymore how to put a dictionary in there
-
The click tar contains two dictionaries:
share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce/langdao-ce-gb.ifo share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce/langdao-ce-gb.dict share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ce/langdao-ce-gb.idx share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec/langdao-ec-gb.idx share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec/langdao-ec-gb.dict share/qml/knowndict/pre_installed/langdao_ec/langdao-ec-gb.ifoCheck, where they endup in the mobile. IIRC, it's enough to make a new dir and place the three files into it.
Will later check, if I find a slot in time.... -
Terence Sambo from the old ubuntu-phone mailing list, compiled a click for me and I installed it with
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/dict$ pkcon --allow-untrusted install-local knowndict.benyfu_0.1.3-15.04_armhf.click Installing files [=========================] Finished [=========================] Installing files [=========================] Starting [=========================] Finished [=========================] Installed knowndict.benyfu-0.1.3.armhf (installed:click,removable=1,app_name=KnownDict) summary goes here phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/dict$ sudo click register --user=phablet 'knowndict.benyfu' 0.1.3 [sudo] password for phablet: phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/dict$The rest was just importing my dictionary via the file manager app.
A big thanks to Terence!

The broken E4.5 returned from bq.com today, repaired (they swapped the screen for 120 EUR). It runs some version of UT.
How can I update this to the most recent version of UBports? I have no M$ laptop, only FreeBSD and some older Ubuntu 15.x
Thanks
-
@guru The installer should work with ubuntu 15 I think, if you have any issues try an older version of the installer like 0.1.12

I've downloaded the file
ubports-installer-0.1.21-beta.freebsdand can have a look into it with$ xz -dc ubports-installer-0.1.21-beta.freebsd | tar tf - +COMPACT_MANIFEST +MANIFEST /opt/ubports-installer/LICENSE.electron.txt /opt/ubports-installer/LICENSES.chromium.html /opt/ubports-installer/blink_image_resources_200_percent.pak /opt/ubports-installer/content_resources_200_percent.pak ...How is this to be installed and used on FreeBSD?
I tried to rename the archive to the normal file name for FreeBSD packages, integrated it in my repository and tried to install it, which gives:
