Seems to me a bug in package management: aptitude should consider upgrading the individual dicts a better solution to resolve the conflict than removing them. Having aspell depend on individual dicts is a no-op as you want to able able to choose which dicts to install. > Do you think this warrants a bug on aspell? Is there a way to resolve this in aspell packaging then?
