I replied before seeing this bug report at <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-guix/2022-03/msg00045.html>, and asked the following questions: > Normally ~/.guix-profile/etc/profile does: > > export ASPELL_DICT_DIR="$HOME/lib/aspell“ > > Can you confirm that’s the case? and: > I’m not familiar enough with Aspell. Do you think this is a > misconfiguration of the ‘aspell-dict-en’ package and possibly other > ‘aspell-dict-’ packages? > > --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- > $ find $(guix build aspell-dict-fr ) -name \*cset > $ find $(guix build aspell-dict-fr ) -name \*cmap > $ find $(guix build aspell-dict-en ) -name \*cmap > --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- > > Let us know if you have clues on how to fix it. Thanks in advance for your help, Ludo’.
