Thanks for the info.

That is a design choice, those symlinks will point to default ispell
dictionary if ispell dictionaries are installed. Same happens with
/etc/dictionaries-common/words.

Creating those symlinks when needed and removing them from postrm is 
in my TODO list, but somewhere low. So, I am leaving this bug report open
until I can work on that.
