Description Lukas Javorsky 2023-06-28 11:02:07 UTC
Aspell has been deprecated since Fedora 39.
Please consider removing dependency on aspell, or porting it to the variants like hunspell or enchant/enchant2.

Change proposal is located here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/AspellDeprecation
FESCo approval is located here: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/3009

If your component has already removed/ported it's aspell dependency, or you don't Require/BuildRequire any aspell subpackage, feel free to close this Bugzilla.

Comment 1 Michael Stahl 2023-07-23 14:02:38 UTC
just had a quick look at this, and it's very unclear what to do about it.

the "hunspell-de" dictionary requires either "ispell -e" or "aspell expand" to generate intermediate files:
 hunspell-capmain-plus_de_AT.tmp.unfiltered-list-expanded.tmp
 hunspell-capmain-plus_de_CH.tmp.unfiltered-list-expanded.tmp
 hunspell-capmain-plus_de_DE.tmp.unfiltered-list-expanded.tmp

i'm unable to find a similar feature in "hunspell", "enchant", or "enchant-2" documentation.

Comment 2 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 07:15:06 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.

Comment 3 Sandro Mani 2024-02-24 11:47:03 UTC
I've migrated hunspell-de to the libreoffice git dicts.
