original bug report from Jan Buchal: emacs-snapshot: German dictionaries for ispell not works in emacs snapshot ingerman and iogerman packages not works with ispell in emacs snapshot. Other package as iczech or ibritish works. Maybe the emacs-snapshot not match the name correctly. In emacs21 these package works.

Reviewing bug reports after Martin call, * Subject: RFH: Removals - emacs-snapshot * 407119: important: emacs-snapshot: German dictionaries for ispell not works in emacs snapshot Note that emacs-snapshot selects aspell as default, so you might indeed be using aspell instead of ispell unless you explicitely select ispell. aspell selection mechanisn in emacs-snapshot is completely independent from ispell one and will take care of german namings. German entries in emacs-snapshot look for 'deutsch' hash while ngerman provides 'ndeutsch', this seems to be the reason for the problem, which I can reproduce (deutsch is not shown in the dicts list). This does not happen in emacs21, since it uses the dictionaries-common patched ispell.el and associated files, pointing to the really installed dicts. emacs-snapshot does not use this mechanism, we (Roman Francoise and dictionaries-common maintainers) decided that being a development snapshot, emacs-snapshot shoud be kept as pristine as possible wrt to dicts, so all problems are shown. Possible workarounds from the user side, * link deutsch.hash to ndeutsch.hash * Add an user entry in your .emacs file to ispell-local-dictionary-alist emacs22 uses dictionaries-common (old) patched ispell.el, so things should work here. I have been doing some work to integrate new ispell.el from emacs-cvs so it works with xemacs21 ans emacs21 as well, but that is not at all complete. So this is an emacs-snapshot only bug. -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
