Package: ispell
Version: 3.1.20.0-4
Severity: wishlist
I tried to spell check a document in TeXmacs, and could not. It
reported that it could not find a dictionary for "english". Perhaps
there should be a symlink from "english" to "american"?

thanks
Hi,
ispell dictionaries are using dictionaries-common, which in turns
maintains (through debconf) the following symlinks:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Aug 3 13:25 /usr/lib/ispell/default.aff
-> /etc/dictionaries-common/default.aff
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 Aug 3 13:25
/usr/lib/ispell/default.hash -> /etc/dictionaries-common/default.hash
That's enough for texmacs/emacs.
Regards,
Daniel
