Note that this is woody version while our current stable is sarge. > Severity: normal > File: /usr/bin/emacs-21.2 > > > Starting emacs and running M-x ispell yields the error > > Invalid regexp: "Invalid range end" > > in the minibuffer.

I have tried to reproduce that with emacs 21.4a-1 (current stable), ispell 3.1.20.0-4, idutch 0.1e-35 and dictionaries-common 0.25.12, but I got no error. I do not expect emacs21 21.2-1 to behave differently, but may be the ranges were not allowed there. Another possible reasons I can think: - Have you any Dutch entry in your ~/.emacs file? - Have you run out of disk space recently? I am cc'ing idutch maintainer because I think this bug, if confirmed, belongs there. -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
