Emacs and ispell

[Johann Spies <jhspies@alpha.futurenet.co.za>]

I have built a custom afrikaans dictionary with ispell.

When I try to use it with emacs20, emacs wouldn't allow me.  I could do it
with emacs19.34 on Debian 1.3.1.

When I try 'update-ispell-dicionary' it does not "see" all the
dictionaries in my /usr/lib/ispell eg.

root@Johann(25)$ update-ispell-dictionary
Please wait while I search for ispell dictionaries...

        [1] british
        [2] german
        [3] dutch

Select the number of the default dictionary [1]

While /usr/lib/ispell has the following:

root@Johann(26)$ dir *.hash
afrikaans.hash    default.hash      english.hash
british.hash      deutsch.hash      german.hash
britishmed+.hash  dutch.hash        nederlands.hash

I can use my afrikaans dictionary through Lyx.  How do I do it with
emacs20?
