But has the keys to know what is being installed and which is the default to select. Note that for most ispell dictionaries/wordlists there is a package and dict name similarity (e.g., wspanish -> spanish). I admit that this similarity is not complete, e.g., miscfiles contains an english dictionary, or inorwegian contains two norwegian variants, not just a single norwegian dict. But anyway, if you combine both knowlegdes, package name and (if known) language name, this should already solve the problem for the vast majority of sysadmins. Of course I would prefer if some additional internationalization is implemented, but after my last week attempts I am not optimistic about that. -- Agustin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
