Hello Chuck!  dict is a client server application, have you looked to
see if you have dictd installed, which is the server side of the
program.  You could also look at dict.conf to see if their is a defualt
net sever that you can uncoment.  If you have dictd installed, then
maybe the actually dictionary files didn't get installed.  Whether this
is an arch problem, or whether the package has been split in to multiple
components, I can't say as I am a Debian user.  But I know what you
mean, dict is certainly very useful.
