Hi Tina!
English Wiktionary has been using Scribunto since at least May of this
year. I'm not sure how Wikitaxi handled these dumps; it may have just
been squashing the errors.
As you've discovered, Wikitaxi will not be able to handle the #invoke
tags in the newer wiki dumps from this year. Given that Wikitaxi was
last released on 2010-06-20, I doubt it will be resolved anytime soon.
If you want to continue using Wikitaxi, I'd recommend you use a dump
from earlier this year:
http://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwiktionary/20130225/. Scribunto was being
rolled out at this time, so it's likely that this Wiktionary dump
would not have #invoke tags.
If you want to try another offline application, you can try XOWA:
http://xowa.sourceforge.net [1]. It imports database dumps, is
portable, handles Scribunto, and is open-source. You can look at some
screenshots here:
http://xowa.sourceforge.net/screenshots.html .
They're for English Wikipedia, but you'll see English Wikisource and
Wikimedia Commons there as well. I've also uploaded a screenshot of
"martial" in XOWA from the English Wiktionary 2013-12-02 dump:

English Wiktionary with images, you can download it from here:
https://archive.org/details/Xowa_enwiktionary_2013-11-17_complete .
Otherwise, you can download XOWA and import the latest dump by
visiting Help:Import/List
Hope this helps.

The reason I think it's a dump issue is because a
former data dump (it
was either from late september or early october) worked just fine - no
code text but a perfect translation on several languages beneath the
etymology section for each word.
And I didn't even heard of Scribunto until now - if I understod
correctly it's an extension for MediaWiki, which I am not using.
I use WikiTaxi for offline wiki browsing which is an executable app
and which only requiers the taxi importer for the bz2 dump and the
taxi app itself which alows me to view an imported wiki. There were
never requierments for any extensions - it's a straightforward
portable app.
Unfortunately, once I update a wiki I delete the old import so I
neither know the exact date of the working dump nor can I take a
screencap to prove that everything worked just fine prior the update
:/

Hello! I am using WikiTaxi for importing wiki
databases and their
offline usage. I've never had issues before but the latest two English
wiktionary databases haven't been working correctly. As seen in the
screenshot, the translations from various languages can't be seen -
instead I can see only the code.
What makes you think it's a dump issue? You seem to lack the Scribunto
extension to render those lua-based templates: install it.
