Since several GNOME ports depend on textproc/aspell for functional spell checking, these ports will now be built without working spell checking because no dictionary will be installed. >How-To-Repeat: N/A >Fix: Proposal: 1. convert language variants into meta ports or ports dependent on textproc/aspell 2. create a super-meta port which makes some reasonable guess on a useable spelling dictionary and builds the appropriate language meta (perhaps based on LANG in environment). >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
