original bug report from Jan Buchal:
emacs-snapshot: German dictionaries for ispell not works in emacs snapshot
ingerman and iogerman packages not works with ispell in emacs snapshot.
Other package as iczech or ibritish works. Maybe the emacs-snapshot not
match the name correctly. In emacs21 these package works.

Hello, I'm working on new packages of emacs-snapshot.
I am not able to reproduce this bug. I installed ingerman and tested the
spelling of the word Rechtschreibung and was told by ispell-word
that RECHTSCHREIBUNG is correct because of root RECHTSCHREIBEN which I
assume is correct behavior. Removing one letter gives a prompt to replace the
word with the correct Rechtschreibung.
I tested with ispell 3.1.20.0-4.3 and ingerman 20051113-5.
Reviewing bug reports after Martin call,

* 407119: important: emacs-snapshot: German dictionaries for ispell not works
in emacs snapshot
Note that emacs-snapshot selects aspell as default, so you might indeed be
using aspell instead of ispell unless you explicitely select ispell. aspell
selection mechanisn in emacs-snapshot is completely independent from ispell
one and will take care of german namings.
German entries in emacs-snapshot look for 'deutsch' hash while ngerman
provides 'ndeutsch', this seems to be the reason for the problem, which I
can reproduce (deutsch is not shown in the dicts list).
This does not happen in emacs21, since it uses the dictionaries-common
patched ispell.el and associated files, pointing to the really installed
dicts.
emacs-snapshot does not use this mechanism, we (Roman Francoise and
dictionaries-common maintainers) decided that being a development snapshot,
emacs-snapshot shoud be kept as pristine as possible wrt to dicts, so all
problems are shown.
Possible workarounds from the user side,
* link deutsch.hash to ndeutsch.hash
* Add an user entry in your .emacs file to ispell-local-dictionary-alist
emacs22 uses dictionaries-common (old) patched ispell.el, so things should
work here. I have been doing some work to integrate new ispell.el from
emacs-cvs so it works with xemacs21 ans emacs21 as well, but that is not
at all complete.
So this is an emacs-snapshot only bug.
