Description Caolan McNamara 2009-06-29 09:18:52 UTC
Description of problem:
xfce4-dict actually prefers "enchant" over "aspell" if it is available, which is a good thing as it fits with the fedora policy for dictionaries (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureDictionary) and gives the same suggestions and language support as in OpenOffice.org/Firefox/Evolution etc.

So we should require enchant instead of aspell to reflect xfce4-dicts preference

took it upon myself to do this

Comment 3 Christoph Wickert 2009-06-30 17:34:37 UTC
Why? Was this a critical bug that needed to be fixed ASAP? Why only wait 28 hrs? I wasn't not even home from FUDCon when you filed the bug.

Proven packagers are allowed to touch others packages when there is an urgent need (secutity, bugs). This was not the case and therefor IMHO you misused your privileges.
