Package: iceweasel-l10n-fr
Version: 1:38.8.0esr-1~deb8u1
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n
Dear Maintainer,
Since a recent update of the package I have been unable to update my Debian
Jessie system. The error message was (in French, which is the system language):
....
Calcul de la mise à jour... Certains paquets ne peuvent être installés. Ceci
peut signifier
que vous avez demandé l'impossible, ou bien, si vous utilisez
la distribution unstable, que certains paquets n'ont pas encore
été créés ou ne sont pas sortis d'Incoming.
L'information suivante devrait vous aider à résoudre la situation :
Les paquets suivants contiennent des dépendances non satisfaites :
hunspell-fr-comprehensive : Est en conflit avec: myspell-fr mais 1.4-26 devra
être installé
E: Paquets défectueux
After some search I see that the package iceweasel-l10n-fr recommends the
dictionary packages myspell-fr or myspell-fr-gut, but not hunspell-fr, as it
has done before. As I use the dictionnary package hunspell-fr-comprehensive
which is not compatible with myspell-fr, that package can not be installed and
then all the update fails.
It is possible to restore the use of the hunspell dictionary, or it is
necessary to discard it?

Version: 115.12.0esr-1+rm
src:iceweasel has been superseded by src:firefox-esr in version
45.0esr-1 in March 2016. Transitional packages to ease upgrades were
provided in the wheezy, jessie, stretch and buster releases. The
transitional packages have been removed finally before the bullseye
release in August 2021.
After regular security support for buster ended in August 2022 and LTS
support ended in June 2024, I'm closing the remaining bug reports now.
