Public bug reported:
Package: emacs
Version: 1:26.1+1-3.2ubuntu2
Distribution: 19.04 disco.
How to reproduce:
1) Open an empty text file in emacs
2) Type in the following German sentence without the quotation marks:
"Wir sprechen von Zustanden in diesem Fall."
3) M-x ispell-change-dictionary[Enter] german-new8[Enter]
4) M-x ispell-buffer
5) Observe that no spellcheck error is reported. On the contrary, I
expect that "Zustanden" be marked as an error and two possibilities be
suggested: "Zuständen" (which would make sense semantically) and
"zustanden" (as the past tense of "zustehen", though it would make no
sense semantically.)
I think that the spellchecking in the background is done by aspell
(though I'm unsure).
