Have you tested this workaround with 4.8.11073, too? Since I updated from 4.4.9344 to 4.8.11073 I have had no success in getting the dictionaries working again. Even when I call one exactly like you did ("Extra:_da - English") it still throws the error "You don't have an English dictionary installed".

Is there anything else you changed? Have you also adjusted the names of the dictionary files and or the Kobo eReader.conf?

Thanks for your help and any hints!

Edit: Figured it out The two characters after Extra:_ must correspond to the suffix and the letters defined in "ExtraLocales" in "Kobo eReader.conf". Apparently, stuff like en-de1 no longer works. I replaced it with d1. Sticking to two letter codes that are identical in the suffix and db column of the database and in the config file seems to have done the trick
