Public bug reported:
gnome-text-editor switched to using libspelling with their 47 RC release
at the beginning of September. libspelling is based on code that was
originally written for gnome-text-editor and gnome-builder.
At that point, Ubuntu 24.10 already had gnome-text-editor 47 Beta and it
takes time for a package to be promoted to main. Therefore, we vendored
libspelling in Ubuntu's gnome-text-editor packaging and began the MIR
process.
Since the MIR was approved today, we would like to remove the vendoring
and promote libspelling to main. This would simplify our packaging.
If this Feature Freeze Exception is not approved, we will unvendor
libspelling for Ubuntu 25.04 instead.
MIR link is LP: #2080062
