Hi Kirill

FYI: I've updated the stardict package in Factory (for 10.3) already.  
Now it's the same as in the Education:desktop buildservice repository.  
Next would be the stardict-tools package containing the  
startdict-editor and some conversion scripts for dictionaries. (The  
package is already available in the Education:desktop repository, but  
I like to have it for 10.3, too.)

I've looked at the stardict homepage and I'm a bit confused about the  
available dictionaries. (They support too much for me ;-)
Can you please tell me which dictionaries are needed first?

I see no problem - we can include it: "You can reproduce and  
distribute Scilab software on any support as long as you do not modify  
Scilab software." and "Scilab license allows you to: * use freely  
Scilab for non commercial use[...]"

So even if it's not GPL, we can build it in the buildservice and  
distribute it via the Edu-CD.

Both looked ok in my eyes. If you like to have a buildservice account,  
just create a "wiki account" and tell me your account name.
If you have any questions about packaging, please let me know and|or  
subscribe to the opensuse-packaging@opensuse.org mailing list.
