Thank you all for the feedback,
Indeed the summary was a bit misleading, I forgot to change it after I
listed the packages. I fixed it now.
I also added that maintainers should decide which spellchecker they prefer
and migrate to that one (hunspell is not mandatory).

to add support for a single-language spellchecking

Hi,
I would like to announce the Fedora change for the deprecation of the
aspell package [1].
This package has a dead upstream and has been obsoleted (in most
occurrences) by the hunspell package [2].
The Fedora Change [3] is describing this in more detail, feel free to view
and read it.
