>Description:
This port is builds and runs fine, but it just don't working since yahoo changed their urls. Let me explain. gdick looks for a word in a dictionary like this:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gdick/YahooDict.py:
17     def search(self, word, lang='en'):
18         if lang == 'en':
19             url = "http://kr.engdic.yahoo.com/search/engdic?p="
20         elif lang == 'ko':
21             url = "http://kr.kordic.yahoo.com/search/kordic?p="
22         
23         try:
24             data = urllib.urlopen(url+urllib.quote(word)).read()
25             print data
26         except:
27             raise ConnectException() 

And this urls:
http://kr.engdic.yahoo.com/search/engdic?p=apple
http://kr.kordic.yahoo.com/search/kordic?p=연락처 (some Korean word from README)

retuns 404 error, so this port is broken and should be removed. There is no new version available and last release was 2009-07-17 so this looks like abandonware.
