Hi, Lionel and Mattia If required I can try to migrate this package to use ispellaff2myspell, but I see some other problems with it, * Uses dpatch * No debian/source/format defined (indeed is old 1.0) * ispell dictionary hash seems to be in bad format, $ ispell -l -d francais /usr/share/doc/ifrench-gut/ALIRE Illegal format hash table /usr/lib/ispell/francais.hash - expected magic2 0x9602, got 0x554f I also wonder how relevant is myspell-fr-gut compared to hunspell-fr-classical, hunspell-fr-comprehensive and hunspell-fr-revised. If it is no longer needed it could be made a transitional package to hunspell-fr making this particular problem disappear (although not others). I have also checked the gutenberg association home page and could not find references to this dict, and upstream location in watch file seems to no longer work. I wonder if this dict is it considered obsolete. Regards, -- Agustin
