 > 	With the upgrade to textproc/aspell, ports depending on the library
 > 	no longer get a useable spelling dictionary installed.  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.

 > 		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

 I shall try to submit something ASAP (this week-end...).
