Failing spelling tests
Hi,
when trying to build lintian, I've got a failing test suite as follows:
t/scripts/profiles-coverage.t ............................. ok

Result: FAIL
I've had similar issues with some Perl packages where we found out
that passing or failing depends on the selected default dictionary for
English. Back then it was US English vs UK English, but here I suspect
maybe the size of the dictionary:
iamerican - American English dictionary for ispell (standard version)
iamerican-huge - American English dictionary for ispell (huge)
iamerican-insane - American English dictionary for ispell (insane version)
iamerican-large - American English dictionary for ispell (large)
iamerican-small - American English dictionary for ispell (small)
wamerican - American English dictionary words for /usr/share/dict
wamerican-huge - American English dictionary words for /usr/share/dict
wamerican-insane - American English dictionary words for /usr/share/dict
wamerican-large - American English dictionary words for /usr/share/dict
wamerican-small - American English dictionary words for /usr/share/dict
(Installed are wamerican and iamerican.)
This is obvious no issue for building in a clean chroot, but annoying
if you do test builds on your local system.
Any ideas how to make the build independent of the installed
dictionary? Maybe running that test only if a specific dictionary
package is installed and the default. And just skipping the test
otherwise.
Regards, Axel
