Others, I have to sideload (the ones which include new combinations of languages that are already in the firmware still work for me with the latest update, e.g. Dutch - German ("Nederlands - Deutsch") - even before I patched libnickel to use additional languages).
I just noticed that since the update the names of the languages in the database must now exactly match either the names of the languages in libnickel or in the ExtraLocales line in Kobo.conf (instead of "Dansk - English" as name I now have to either use "Extra:_Dansk - English" in the database with "Dansk" in Kobo.conf or "Extra:_da - English" with "da".
Those dictionaries are sideloaded and always have been. I found them in the mobileread dictionaries thread.

Do you mean I should change something in Kobo.conf to be able to use my dictionaries? I don't have a kobo.conf file anyway, just a kobo ereader.conf one, and I see nothing about dictionaries there so wouldn't know in which category to put them (I just saw General, ApplicationPreferences, DialogSettings, FeatureSettings, but might have missed others in the magma), or how to write it.
