Package: dictionaries-common Version: 1.5.11 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: era+deb...@iki.fi
Running a diff against ispell.el from emacs23 reveals some upstream changes which should probably be incorporated into the version in dictionaries-common. There are also differences in flyspell.el but they seem by quick glance to be fixes which should perhaps be merged by upstream instead of the other way around. repro$ apt-get install emacs23-el repro$ zcat /usr/share/emacs/23.1/lisp/textmodes/flyspell.el.gz | > diff -u - /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/flyspell.el | > less repro$ zcat /usr/share/emacs/23.1/lisp/textmodes/ispell.el.gz | > diff -u - /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/ispell.el | > less I assume that having these files in dictionaries-common is a conscious decision, although having the same files as shipped by Emacs etc seems somewhat confusing and potentially risky. (Witness also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dictionaries-common/+bug/619015 -- a change in emacs23 causes dictionaries-common's flyspell to break. Because of that, I hesitantly set the bug severity to Normal rather than Minor or Wishlist.) /* era */ -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less.
