Hello

since long I use GoldenDict for Android (also for Mac and Win) and since my new phone with Android 14 (now 15) I have the issue, that on each use it asks me:

"The following dictionaries are to be indexed before they can be used"

and all my dictionarys are to indexed for further use, it might seem.
I noticed soon, that I can just ignore it and go on with 'Skip' and all works, but it is annoying.
I checked all permissions and none is restricted.

The app is very old and not anymore supported, see:

http://goldendict.mobi/

the version 1.7.2 can be donwloaded for free and licensed. On Github its only Mac and Win:

https://github.com/goldendict/goldendict/issues/1700

Anyone still uses GoldenDict 1.7.2 and knows how to get rid of this message on start?
Thanks. frank
