Package: dictionaries-common
Version: 0.49.2
Severity: important

I have installed packages aspell and aspell-bg (Bulgarian), and I
would like to use aspell to spell check Bulgarian text encoded with
iso-8859-5 in Emacs. I have set my ispell-local-dictionary-alist
variable to the following:

(custom-set-variables
 '(ispell-local-dictionary-alist (quote (("bulgarian"
 "[АБВГДЕЖЗИЙКЛМНОПРСТУФХЧШЩЪЬЮЯабвгдежзийклмнопрстуфхцшщюя]"
 "[^АБВГДЕЖЗИЙКЛМНОПРСТУФХЧШЩЪЬЮЯабвгдежзийклмнопрстуфхцшщюя]" "" nil
 ("-d" "bulgarian") nil iso-8859-5)))))

However, dictionary "bulgarian" does not appear in
ispell-dictionary-alist after restarting Emacs. If I add it by hand,
using the above settings, ispell and flyspell work correctly and I am
able to spell check buffers with the iso-8859-5 encoding.

When I install ispell-bulgarian, the Emacs ispell interface permits
the Bulgarian dictionary to be added to ispell-dictionary-alist, but
since that dictionary is set to use the iso-8859-1 encoding, I still
cannot spell check iso-8859-5 buffers.
