Hi!

I had, a long time ago, replaced the dict-es.zip file (for the Spanish dictionary) by a custom one. Until recently, each time I would turn on the wifi on my Kobo Clara, the custom dictionary would get replaced by the official one, but now it does no longer do so: the custom one remains. I have tried everything to get back the official one, but there appears to be no way. The error message "4 dictionary downloads pending; sync to install" is furthermore displayed in the settings, and nothing happens when syncing.

PS: I might have messed up with extra locales a long time ago, but as well as I could, I've put back everything into place. I never patched anything.

I don't want to factory reset because I have plenty of annotations on side-loaded books that I would prefer not to lose.

My only question is: do you see a way for me to get back the official Spanish dictionary, and if possible get rid of the error message?
