I've started to build gedit and it now needs gspell. I think I could hack gedit to build without gspell, but it will probably be easier to just add the gspell page to the book.

Building gspell is not hard, but one test fails.  The offending test says:

/* This unit test fails with the aspell enchant backend, but aspell can
 * be considered deprecated, it is better to use hunspell, so WONTFIX.
 * For more details, see:
 * https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=772406
*/

aspell has been working for me for many years. Is it referenced in the book in six places.

The question is whether it is worthwhile to update to hunspell, add hunspell along side of aspell, or just leave aspell alone in the book.
