Doubt in dictionaries creation for for kobo?

Ereader: Kobo Touch Model: N905 Firmware: 3.19.5761 (Original firmware)
Hardware Updated: 2GB of internal micro sd card exchange for 8GB.

My Linux debian 8 system and installed Pyglossary and Penelope via git repository , including all dependencies .

https://github.com/pettarin/penelope

https://github.com/ilius/pyglossary

I used dictionaries bgl Babylon to convert kobo dictionaries format. One for translation of words en -> pt. And another dictionary of synonymous words in pt.

The conversion process.

pyglossary

1.1 - python2.7 pyglossary.pyw mpb.bgl mpb.ifo

2.1 - python2.7 pyglossary.pyw mipb.bgl mipb.ifo

No error message. Four files created with extensions : ifo, dz, idx and syn.

1 - (mpb.ifo, mpb.dz, mpb.idx, mpb.syn)

2 - (mipb.ifo, mipb.dz, mipb.idx, mipb.syn)

1.2 - I created a zip file with these four files -> mpb.zip

2.2 - I created a zip file with these four files -> mipb.zip

penelope

1.3 - python -m penelope -i mpb.zip -j stardict -f pt -t pt -p kobo -o dicthtml-pt.zip

2.3 - python -m penelope -i mipb.zip -j stardict -f en -t pt -p kobo -o dicthtml-en-pt.zip

I followed the dictionaries installation procedure explained : https://github.com/pettarin/penelope

And I could not install any dictionary.The Kobo Touch only recognizes the original dictionaries. Asking to enable Wifi to reinstall dictionaries. What am I doing wrong? Grateful for your attention.
