Thanks for the info, I did not find the relevant part in helper.py. There is one package (hunspell-sv) where that is desirable, since it will only contain transitional packages hunspell-sv-se and myspell-sv-se, so I think it is better if hunspell-sv-se transitional package is created from lo-dicts itself. Regarding myspell-sv-se transitional package, it was created back in 2011, so I think is safe not to worry anymore about it. I will ask for old hunspell-sv removal afterwards, > > A proposed patch is added. > > Please just confirm you won't need anything else, and I'll upload your > patch quickly so you can turn the rest into transitional packages :) Apart from the above, I think nothing else is needed. Thanks for everything, Regards, -- Agustin
