Package: aspell
Version: 0.60.2+20050121-1
When I invoke aspell from vim-gtk (under X), the new
curses enabled aspell confuses vim and it only shows
one line of garbage. Using the non-curses version of
aspell works fine. I didn't see a command line switch
in aspell to do this so I recompiled aspell without
curses. Maybe Debian could offer a non-curses package
of aspell. The problem might be vim's fault for not
suporting curses display correctly. But this quick fix
works fine.

Hi, I think this bug is bogus and I'm going to close it with this mail.
The rationale is twofold:
1) since vim 7, spell checking has been integrated in vim; the internal
spell checker is now _the_ way of doing spell checking directly from vim
2) gvim is not expected to be a full terminal emulator under X, for that
you have a plethora of other programs, so it is not expected to provide
all the feature that might be needed. The 'mc' example reported by the
aspell maintainer is peculiar: mc run under vim, but did not under gvim
complaining about some missing terminal capabilities [1]. If you want to
complain more broadly about this please fill a bug report (better
upstream) about generic terminal weakness of gvim. Still, I really think
upstream will refuse to improve such support.
Cheers.
[1] This may also point out that there is a bug in aspell, which is not
capable, while mc is, of discovering what it needs to run properly. But
let's ignore that.
