Package: aspell-da Version: 1.6.25-1.1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Recently uploaded aspell 0.60.7~20110707-1.2 included a partial multiarch implementation, where aspell hashes can be shared between 32/64 bit architectures with the same endianness (but not with different endiannesses), by always using 32bit numbers. Transition was automatic for arch:all aspell-dictionaries using aspell-autobuildhash (the preferred method for packaging aspell dictionaries), but there are still some arch:any aspell dictionaries. Hashes shipped by those arch:any aspell dictionary packages for 64 bit architectures will no longer work with new aspell, that always use 32 bit numbers, and need to be rebuilt against last aspell (or migrated to aspell-autobuilhash). aspell-da is one of them, 64bitsbox$ aspell check -d danish mytext.txt Error: The file "/usr/lib/aspell/da.rws" is not in the proper format. Incompatible hash function. I have just uploaded an NMU to make aspell declare a break against old non fixed aspell dictionaries. This means that aspell-da will not be installable with new aspell until is fixed. Sorry I did not warn in advance. I was convinced that Brian Nelson made aspell-autobuildhash mandatory for all aspell-dictionaries. After noticing this problem I was looking for the original reference, but only found the mass bug report including # #319619 aspell-da: Needs repackaging for latest aspell where aspell-autobuildhash is established as the preferred method for packaging aspell dictionaries, but not made mandatory.
