Bug#485500: doesn't set default dictionary
Package: hunspell
Version: 1.2.2-2
Severity: normal
Executing hunspell yields:
$ hunspell
Can't open affix or dictionary files.
But it works given a dictionary:
$ hunspell -d en_US
Hunspell 1.2.2
I think hunspell should have its default dictionary set via maintainer
scripts, as is done for ispell. Maybe with a debconf prompt, too.
