However, there is something left, ispell.el only checks for ispell installed dicts before adding them to valid-dictionary-list, so even in that case aspell dicts will not be shown in the pop-up menus or in ispell-change-dictionary call unless the equivalent ispell dict is installed. After dict registration things like ; Local Variables: ; ispell-local-dictionary: "galego-minimos" ; End: should work for the registered aspell dict, even if the equivalent ispell dict is not installed, and after that first call, that entry will be added to ispell-change-dictionary possible values. I am working in a way to allow all dicts (either ispell or aspell) that are installed and registered be displayed in the pop-up menus and also shown explicitely as possible values when calling ispell-change-dictionary. That will mix ispell and aspell dicts entries, so an spellcheck call for a language can fail if that language dict is not available for the currently selected spellchecker, but is for the other. I think this is a very minor problem and people is expected to know which language is associated to which spellchecker if both are installed by them. Since there is already a bugreport about something similar for dictionaries-common, and I plan to fix this, I am reassigning this bug report to dictionaries-common and merging it with the other bugreport. I have put experimental packages at http://dict-common.alioth.debian.org/experimental for further testing. Thanks for your feedback.
