Kobo Glo HD problem with extra dictionaries after firmware update.
I updated the firmware and everything works fine except I no longer can access my extra dictionaries.
I have a few extra dictionaries that I installed a while back. They still show up as installed in the settings after the update and they also still show up when I open the choice of dictionaries when looking up a word but when I select any of the extra ones, I end up with the default english dictionary.
Here's an example of the formatting of the name of the dictionaries : Extra:_e5_Webster_Unabridged_1913
I checked the Kobo eReader.conf and KoboReader.sqlite files after the update and all the necessary entries are still there unchanged from when I first installed the extra dictionaries.
One last thing : on the previous versions of the firmware, I used the patch that changes the dictionaries from "dicthtml" to "micthtml" so all my dictionaries had previously been renamed "micthtml" by me. Since the patches are not available yet for the new version, I changed all the dictionaries back to "dicthtml" when I updated the firmware and thus they all show correctly as being installed and I can access all the standard kobo dictionaires but as I explained above, I can't access any of the extra ones. When I select one of those, all that happens is that it takes me to the default english dictionary.
Any suggestion ? Thanks in advance !
