Bug#640777: O: ispell-fi



I wonder if this package should be removed from Debian.

It looks like it's still based on the same inadequate word list data that I
originally packaged more than a decade ago.  At that time, it was the best we
had, so it made sense to package it.  Since then, there has been no upstream
activity, and the Debian development has consisted of adopting to changes in
the consumer packages.  

Now we have src:suomimalaga which is based on technology much better suited for
handling the complexities of Finnish and appears to be well maintained both
upstream and in Debian.
