Hi,
It would be better to change the compiled in defaults. I believe the --enable-dict-dir configure option should change the default for dict-dir. Kevin On Sun, 26 Mar 2017, Ludovic Courtès wrote:
Hello! GNU Guix does not follow the file system hierarchy standard (FHS) and thus does not have a “standard location” where dictionaries can be looked for. When using the ‘aspell’ command-line tool, that’s not a problem: users can simply do export ASPELL_CONF="dict-dir $HOME/.guix-profile/lib/aspell" and then ‘aspell’ will look for dictionaries in this place. However, libaspell does not honor ‘ASPELL_CONF’, and thus libraries such as Enchant that link against libaspell think there are no dictionaries around because they’re not looking in the right place: https://bugs.gnu.org/25836 To work around this, I considered patching our ‘aspell’ package in Guix such that libaspell would always honor ‘ASPELL_CONF’. I tried this naive patch:
