Latin definitions not appearing in info panel?

I've come across something strange: I can't seem to get Latin definitions (from either the Dictionary of Latin Forms or the Lewis and Short) to appear in the info panel for certain resources. When I click on a random word in the Clementine Vulgate, say, or Augustine's Confessions in Latin, I only see parsing information (ie. : noun, common, accusative, singular, masculine).

However, when I open up the Nova Vulgata Bibliorum Sacrorum Editio, or a PBB book set to Latin and I click on a word, the definition appears in the info panel from either the DLF or the LSLD, along with the parsing information.

The info panel works correctly with any Greek dictionary, but not with Latin. Can anyone confirm this?

    I get an extremely slow response  and some odd behavior on the parsing. I think there is a bug somewhere here.

    It looks like it works with unparsed Latin, but not parsed Latin. If you click on "Settings" in the information panel, you'll see that there are settings for Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic lemmas, but not Latin. This suggests Latin support hasn't yet been added to this panel.

    The morphology weirdness that Martha refers to is caused my machine-parsing - where multiple morphological possibilities exist, all are given.

    "Vinulentia" works, because it has no morphology for some reason.

    Thanks Mark.

    Support for Latin lemma lookup in Information will be in an upcoming release.

    UPDATE: Sooner than I thought ... this should be fixed in 5.2b Beta 1.
