dpkg -L ispell
...will show you what files are in that package. There are none in
/usr/lib/ispell. Installing it multiple times won't change that.
apt-cache show ispell
...will show you details about that package, including the following:
No dictionaries are included in this package.
Ispell looks in /usr/lib/ispell/default.{aff,hash}
and in /usr/share/dict/words by default. Those
files may be provided, respectively, by an
ispell-dictionary package and a wordlist package.
(You must have an ispell dictionary before you can
use ispell; a wordlist is only required for ispell's
(L)ookup command.)
apt-cache search ispell | grep dictionary
...will output a list of available dictionary files, some of which
might not be actual ispell dictionaries, but it'll tell you enough to
proceed.
