I found the source on ftp.dict.org/pub/dict/ and it's now setup on our server dict.arabeyes.org:2628 :)

It's really nice, specially that we don't have any _really_ free dictd server for the Arabic language.

It would also be nice, if the RedHat guyz can provide us with the .rpm packages, even if they would be added to the rawhide instead of being included in the official releases.
