Package: emacs21
Version: 21.4a-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

under Tools->Spell Check, there are only a few dictionnaries
available. I tried switching to dutch, to no avail, although aspell-nl
is installed. Then I noticed there are three ispell.el:
/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/ispell.elc
/usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/debian-ispell.elc
/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/textmodes/ispell.elc (from emacs21-common)
/usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/textmodes/ispell.el (from emacs21-el)
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/ispell.el
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/debian-ispell.el (from 
dictionnaries.common)

so ... which is the "right" one ? 

The dictionary-alist is
(("american" "[a-zA-Z]" "[^a-zA-Z]" "[']" nil
  ("-d" "en_US")
  nil iso-8859-1)

 (nil "[A-Za-z]" "[^A-Za-z]" "[']" nil
      ("-B")
      nil iso-8859-1)) 

Is this a bug ? Shouldn't this list be longer ?
Is there a specific mechanism/conf to add more dictionnaries support ?

TIA
