Package: dictionaries-common
Version: 1.5.17
Severity: normal

In my custom.el I have

'(ispell-dictionary "german-old8")

(There is nothing about ispell in the other personal init-files.)

But when I started emacs it always used german-new8 as default and I had
to manually choose the right dictionary. I then found out that german-new8
was set as the system-wide default dictionary of ispell and had to change
that to get german-old8 in emacs right from the beginning. But things should
be set up in a way that settings in custom.el should take precedence over
system-wide settings.

The problem seems to be caused by
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/debian-ispell.el

The bug seems to be related to the problem in
