My idea is:
PART 1 (SHELL SCRIPT)
[snip instructions...]
Now you end up with a large set of zip files in your output directory.

You sure do. Running the attached shell script from my home directory:
  $ sh aspell_dict.sh
  $ ls AspellDicts/
aspell6-af.zip   aspell6-fo.zip   aspell6-mg.zip   aspell6-sc.zip
aspell6-am.zip   aspell6-fr.zip   aspell6-mi.zip   aspell6-sk.zip
aspell6-az.zip   aspell6-ga.zip   aspell6-mk.zip   aspell6-sl.zip
aspell6-be.zip   aspell6-gd.zip   aspell6-mn.zip   aspell6-sr.zip
aspell6-bg.zip   aspell6-gl.zip   aspell6-mr.zip   aspell6-sv.zip
aspell6-bn.zip   aspell6-gu.zip   aspell6-ms.zip   aspell6-sw.zip
aspell6-br.zip   aspell6-gv.zip   aspell6-mt.zip   aspell6-ta.zip
aspell6-ca.zip   aspell6-he.zip   aspell6-nds.zip  aspell6-te.zip
aspell6-cs.zip   aspell6-hil.zip  aspell6-nl.zip   aspell6-tet.zip
aspell6-csb.zip  aspell6-hr.zip   aspell6-nn.zip   aspell6-tl.zip
aspell6-cy.zip   aspell6-hsb.zip  aspell6-no.zip   aspell6-tn.zip
aspell6-da.zip   aspell6-hu.zip   aspell6-ny.zip   aspell6-tr.zip
aspell6-de.zip   aspell6-ia.zip   aspell6-or.zip   aspell6-uk.zip
aspell6-el.zip   aspell6-id.zip   aspell6-pa.zip   aspell6-uz.zip
aspell6-en.zip   aspell6-is.zip   aspell6-pl.zip   aspell6-vi.zip
aspell6-eo.zip   aspell6-it.zip   aspell6-pt.zip   aspell6-wa.zip
aspell6-es.zip   aspell6-ku.zip   aspell6-qu.zip   aspell6-yi.zip
aspell6-et.zip   aspell6-la.zip   aspell6-ro.zip   aspell6-zu.zip
aspell6-fa.zip   aspell6-lt.zip   aspell6-ru.zip
aspell6-fi.zip   aspell6-lv.zip   aspell6-rw.zip

Perhaps it would be better to retain the original suffixes to these dictionaries?

PART 2 (INSTALLERS)
-------------------

Over to you maestro.

Can't you script this step? If you can, then tell me how and I'll add it to the script. Unless, of course, you take this and run with it...
