Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: dictionaries-common
Please remove the following files from dictionaries-common:
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/debian-ispell.el
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/flyspell.el
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/ispell.el
They are already provided with the emacs packages (emacs23-common and
emacs-snapshot-common) and the versions provided with dictionaries-common are
currently incompatible with the ones that are included in the emacs23-package:
When these files are installed any attempt to enable on-the-fly spell checking
e.G. by M-x flyspell-mode will result in a generic error message:
Enabling flyspell-mode gave an error.
No debug info. And even if debug-on-error is set the error message is
generated without setting any trigger for the debugger. Took me 2 hours
to track this error down.
After removing the files spell checking while typing in emacs works fine
again.
