From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703 Description of problem: The aspell package shipping since Severn1 (9.0.93) has required all the dictionary modules to be of versions 0.50 or greater. However, the aspell-it module is still at version 0.1-17. This breaks apt-get; I have had to remove aspell-it as soon as I need to use apt-get. Probably have not been noticed by many people as they would not have all language files installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.1-17 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install apt from Fedora 2. Configure apt for use with 0.94 repositories 3. Use apt-get to install something Actual Results: The following packages have unmet dependencies: aspell: Obsoletes: aspell-it (< 0.50) but 0.1-17 is to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). Expected Results: apt-get works without errors Additional info:
aspell-it pre 0.50 is indeed obsolete. Unfortunately, we have intentionally not upgraded aspell-it because the copyright/license issue surrounding the original source tarball has not been resolved. When it is, we will upgrade aspell-it.

aspell-it 0.53 should be free under the GPL now. Could you reconsider to integrate it in the standard distribution please?
