Yes - sorry.  I somehow expected this hint after I sended the mail.

Well, the dictd daemon is *not* part of the dict-wn package.  So it might / will
exist after removing dict-wn.  The package dict-wn just provides one possible
data file for dict and if it is removed the dictd daemon needs to know this
(via a restart).  Do you think it is OK considering this?

BTW, the current invoking of dictd was inspired to work around a problem (#357020)
which becomes void now because the serpento package is finally removed.  So thanks
for the catch with piuparts.

Kind regards

         Andreas.
