This is harmless, as a matter of fact a fix was committed last friday and I
planned an upload for tomorrow, but just to avoid noise.

I this a new lintian test?. I do not remember it.

Did it complain during normal install?

The above is the error, and is an aspell error message regarding your dict,
where the bug seems to be located. I do not have a buggy dict at hand to try
this, but IIRC, that error is triggered by the absence of the
--dont-validate-affixes option. The use of --debug enables this test.

What the --debug option intends is to help debugging of aspell-autobuildhash,
not aspell, that provides no debug option, and the only --debug extra addition
is that if set, will disable --dont-validate-affixes and so, a check of
affixes will be carried out, so checking of dicts is easier.

You have all the info provided by aspell, that may be enough.

or even in libc6 ;-). However this is usually a problem in the dict, so that
is the place to start.

Not sure about the package (rus-ispell?), but I remember something like this
being the reason for adding the --dont-validate-affixes option, so packages
do not get stalled in case of non responsive upstream.

Will try looking into  my ancient mailbox tomorrow.

Unless I find a real problem I will downgrade and retitle this bug report as
$no_pre_post noise related and close it with the upload.

Will also try looking at your package tomorrow in case I can suggest
something. If is a new upstream version, let me know.
