Subject: aspell-fi: Support for pending Aspell 0.60

Package: aspell-fi
Severity: wishlist

I'm planning to upload Aspell 0.60 Real Soon Now. Since the binary
format of the dictionaries has changed in 0.60, this dictionary must be
rebuilt. The general approach to transition a dictionary is:

* Use the Aspell packages available at
  http://people.debian.org/~pyro/pending/

* Build-depend on aspell (>> 0.60)

* Change "Provides: aspell-dictionary" to "Provides: aspell6-dictionary"

* Note that the dictionary files previously located in /usr/share/aspell
  and /usr/lib/aspell are now all located in /usr/lib/aspell-0.60, and
  adjust the package accordingly.

I'm currently building a staging area to make the transition as smooth
as possible. Please contact me once you've prepared the new package and
I'll add it to the staging area. I plan to make the aspell 0.60 upload
in a couple days (tentatively sometime Monday). If you have not
prepared a package by then, I'll elevate this bug to RC and NMU shortly
thereafter.
