I also tried the workaround described here, but to no avail:
It seems to work if the name of the dictionary in the database is changed from "Dansk - English" to "Extra:_da - English".
This actually is the most important patch for me, as the built in dictionaries are quite "limited". I would be very grateful if you could look into this.
Thanks very much for your help!

P.S. I noticed that the patch was changed as follows from 4.4.9344 to 4.8.11073:
4.4.9344 (working)
Code:
find_base_address = `\0E\0x\0t\0r\0a\0:\0\x20`
replace_string = 000d, `\x20`, `_`
</Patch>
4.8.11073 (not working)
Code:
find_base_address = `\0Extra:\x20`
replace_string = 0007, `\x20`, `_`
</Patch>
Changing it back won't work - building the patch results in an error when I tried.
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 |
Regarding the patch, be careful and always install the patch corresponding to your actual firmware version.
