Ispell transition




Hi.

Sorry if this topic has been raised already somewhere else, but didn't
find any details about your transition.

ispell 3.3.02-4, currently staying in sid, Breaks several packages
providing an ispell-dictionary. While I'm sure you have good reasons to
do so, I do wonder if you already talked to other maintainers so that
they start updating their packages.

It seems that the change that's causing most troubles right now is:

     + add versioned `Breaks' for all packages providing
       ispell-dictionary that are not architecture `all';

which looks like:

Breaks: iamerican (<= 3.1.20.0-9), ibritish (<= 3.1.20.0-9), ibulgarian
(<= 3.0-12), iczech (<= 20040229-5), idanish (<= 1.6.25-1), iestonian
(<= 1:20030606-12.1), ifinnish (<= 0.7-17.3), ifinnish-large (<=
0.7-17.3), ifrench (<= 1.4-25), ifrench-gut (<= 1:1.0-27), igaelic (<=
0.50-7), ihungarian (<= 0.99.4-2), iirish (<= 2.0-20), iitalian (<=
1:2.3-2), imanx (<= 0.50-8), inorwegian (<= 2.0.10-3.2), iogerman (<=
1:2-26), ipolish (<= 20100612-1), irussian (<= 0.99g5-8.1), iswedish (<=
1.4.5-2), iukrainian (<= 1.6.0-1)

A quick investigation gives us the list below (list of packages that
need to be updated). Did you try to contact those maintainers, explain
the plan and ask them to update their package? ... and file bugreports?

As long as this list of packages is not reduced to zero, ispell won't be
able to migrate to testing.
