Package: myspell-en-za Version: 1:3.2.0-4 Severity: grave Tags: patch Justification: renders package unusable I have no idea if it worked at the time, but the fix for Bug #536643 broke the new version of en_ZA included in OOO320_m7, which was a different upstream fix for the same bug: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=100281 You can see some more details in this Ubuntu LP Bug: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org-dictionaries/+bug/467278 Here are some test-cases for the South African spellchecker. All these words should be correct: | have having dad dad's biltong braai bliksem Additionally, Openoffice spews out 68k lines of the following type of error when attempting to spellcheck with the broken dictionary: | error: line 15: bad flag alias index: 0 | error: line 15: bad flag vector alias So, essentially, myspell-en-za 1:3.2.0-4 is completely unusable for South African users. Attached is a patch that reverts the changes in 1:3.1.0-4 and fixes this dictionary for me.
