Doubt in dictionaries creation for for kobo?

Ereader: Kobo Touch Model: N905 Firmware: 3.19.5761 (Original firmware)
Hardware Updated: 2GB of internal micro sd card exchange for 8GB.

My Linux debian 8 system and installed Pyglossary and Penelope via git repository , including all dependencies .

https://github.com/pettarin/penelope

https://github.com/ilius/pyglossary

I used dictionaries bgl Babylon to convert kobo dictionaries format. One for translation of words en -> pt. And another dictionary of synonymous words in pt.

The conversion process.

pyglossary

1.1 - python2.7 pyglossary.pyw mpb.bgl mpb.ifo

2.1 - python2.7 pyglossary.pyw mipb.bgl mipb.ifo

No error message. Four files created with extensions : ifo, dz, idx and syn.

1 - (mpb.ifo, mpb.dz, mpb.idx, mpb.syn)

2 - (mipb.ifo, mipb.dz, mipb.idx, mipb.syn)

1.2 - I created a zip file with these four files -> mpb.zip

2.2 - I created a zip file with these four files -> mipb.zip

penelope

1.3 - python -m penelope -i mpb.zip -j stardict -f pt -t pt -p kobo -o dicthtml-pt.zip

2.3 - python -m penelope -i mipb.zip -j stardict -f en -t pt -p kobo -o dicthtml-en-pt.zip

I followed the dictionaries installation procedure explained : https://github.com/pettarin/penelope

And I could not install any dictionary.The Kobo Touch only recognizes the original dictionaries. Asking to enable Wifi to reinstall dictionaries. What am I doing wrong? Grateful for your attention.

What version of penelope you are using? look at my entrance https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=226 I think that version 3 of penelope does not works well for kobo, but it works fine the version 2.

I want to thank Surquizu the information. I managed to create dictionaries and install on Kobo. I made a basic mistake, forgetting to add the syn files created by Pyglossary to zip files. Which will be processed by Penelope to generate the dictionary for kobo. I had another difficulty updated the pyglossary via git repository. After updated pyglossary could no longer generate the Stardic files due to processing errors of bgl files. What did not happen in the previous version of Pyglossary. So I had to manually install the previous version of Pyglossary. So it was only to create the dictionary kobo which process described above.

Installing dictionaries on the Kobo reader.

In Kobo settings access languages, dictionaries. Unselectt all installed dictionaries.
I turned off the wifi. Kobo connected to the computer via USB. Delete all files In directory: .kobo / dic, and copy the new dictionaries for kobo. In directory: .kobo / dict

And reboot the kobo.
Reenable Wifi

I created three new dictionaries that successfully installed.
