For the moment, I have it working with a symlink to /usr/share/vim/addons/spell in my ~/.vim directory, but I'm sure there's a better solution. These packages are out of date. They're from when we initially uploaded vim7 to the archive and we're now up to vim7.1. This is partially due to them being a beast to build, the packaging being in bad shape, and Vim shipping with a plugin that should automatically download the spellfiles you need if you set 'spelllang' to a language it doesn't currently have spellfiles for. Your solution is approximately what would be done, if/when the packaging is updated and re-uploaded, except that it would ideally be handled by vim-addons from the vim-addon-manager package. The reason you saw this behavior is because the last upload of the Vim package removed /usr/share/vim/addons from the default 'runtimepath' setting. I accidentally uploaded the Vim package before a NEWS entry had been included to point this out (the next upload will have the NEWS entry).
