I don't think it is a good suggestion. I found only one package in
Debian that does so:
% grep-dctrl -F Provides editor -a -F Suggests,Recommends spell \
-s Package
/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-powerpc_Packages
Package: nano
% grep-dctrl -e -F Package 'emacs|vi' -a -F Suggests,Recommends spell \
-s Package
/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-powerpc_Packages
%
And if you start with this, where will you stop? svn, cvs, gcc, make,
sendmail, …
There should be an error message that tells “ispell not found,” but
nothing more.
Bye, Jörg.
