Package: iceowl-l10n-de
Version: 4.0.0.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,


currently iceowl-l10n-de recommends
 myspell-de-de | myspell-de-at | myspell-de-ch

In the meantime there exist directories hunspell-de-de, hunspell-de-at
and hunspell-de-ch, which are based on the same source a the myspell
dictionaries but are build some functional extensions of the huspell
dictionaries, so the hunspell dictionaries should always be preferred
over the myspell ones (if the calling program supports hunspell, which
iceowl should do for ages now).

So I'd suggest to recommend on
 hunspell-de-de | hunspell-de-at | hunspell-de-ch

I (as the maintainer of all these myspell-de-* and hunspell-de-*
dictionaries) think about completely remove the myspell-de-*
dictionaries, since currently all programs in the meantime should
support the hunspell variants, which gives the user a better
experience.

A little patch for debian/control is attached.

Tschoeeee
