I'm upgrading aspell-de from 20131206-2 to 20131206-3 and get the
following error message:

/var/lib/dpkg/info/aspell-de.postinst: 58: /var/lib/dpkg/info/aspell-de.postinst: cannot create /var/lib/aspell/de.compat: Directory nonexistent

You're right, there is a problem when you have no other aspell
dictionary package installed and upgrade from older aspell-de versions
to 20131206-3.

I'll try to fix this soon (seems to be necessary to create
/var/lib/aspell in postinst and not only preinst, since it would
otherwise be removed when the old aspell-de package is removed).

As a quick work around just install aspell-de again, this should work
without a problem (at least on my system).

Installing aspell-en also fixed it; I guess because I didn't have it installed before.

Danke,
~David
