Package: aspell-it
Version: 0.60-2
Severity: wishlist
During the compilation of the dictionary file (it.rws), a lot of
warning messages are generated and many of them can easily be removed.
The wordlist (it.cwl) is derived from Myspell and has the following
format:
(1) the first line is an integer specifying the number of lines that
follow ("91477")
(2) there's a block of line starting with "/ " containing some
copyright informations; these are just comments.
(3) the previous blocks are followed by the dictionary words:
this is the important stuff.
(1) causes the following warning message:
"Warning: The word "91477" is invalid. The character '9'
(U+39) may not appear at the beginning of a word. Skipping word."
(2) causes the following:
Warning: Removing invalid affix ' ' from word .
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'C' from word .
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'o' from word .
...
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 't' from word .
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'm' from word .
Warning: Removing invalid affix 'l' from word .
(3) causes the following:
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'T' from word cento.
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'q' from word cento.
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'T' from word cinquanta.
...
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'q' from word tr?
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'T' from word venti.
Warning: Removing inapplicable affix 'q' from word venti.

(1),(2) can be avoided with the following patch which filters out
the unneeded text at compile time:

As for (3) I asked upstream and it's a known issue which could be
fixed in the near future.
Those are just warnings and I verified that there are no error hiding
behind those; I still think it's better to keep everything as clean as
possible.
