Bug Description

[Test Case]
1. Upgrade from lucid to precise with gnome-utils and gnome-dictionary installed

[Regression Potential]
Almost none as this just adds a breaks/replaces to assist with upgrades
As this was uploaded near the end of the precise cycle, it's unlikely any toolchain changes occurred which might break this package

Hello vishnuch, or anyone else affected,

Accepted gnome-dictionary into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-dictionary/3.4.0-1ubuntu0.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
