Description of problem: On a kickstart multilib installation of RHEL4 on ppc64, aspell doesn't work at all by default: Error: No word lists can be found for the language "en_US". After some time of investigation, it turned out that aspell is multilib but the dictionary rpms are just ppc, and aspell (ppc64) doesn't find the dictionary data. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): aspell-0.50.5-4.EL4 aspell-en-0.51-11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. on a ppc64 box with both aspell.ppc and aspell.ppc64 installed (this is apparently the default): 2. run aspell check some.file 3. see what happens Actual results: the error message above, no spell checking Expected results: spell checking Additional info: this appears to be a workaround: running aspell with --dict-dir=/usr/lib/aspell
Only important issues like performance and security are fixed in RHEL 4.9 and later. This bug does not meet necessary criteria and is therefore closed. The product changed to el5.
