aspell incorrectly filter out text in --mode=email : it skip lines with
"cyrillic small letter o" found in first 10 line characters.

This happens because aspell incorrectly match this "small o" with ">" symbol,
which is correct "email quotation mark" (in --mode=email aspell skip lines with
">" symbol within first 10 characters of line).

As far as I understand, these two symbols match because aspell incorrectly
work with Unicode (it cast <int> to <unsigned char>), look at symbol codes:
003E            GREATER-THAN SIGN
043E            CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER O

I've created patch. It's worked, but I'm not sure is it doing right thing
because I don't know C++ at all. :^)

Created an attachment (id=29946) [details]
patch... :)

Add to .ebuild something like this:

src_unpack() {
    unpack ${A}
    cd ${S}
    epatch ${FILESDIR}/${P}-quotechar.patch
}

Does this still apply to aspell 0.50.5-r2?

Yeah. :-( This bug exists in 0.50.5-r2 too. Looks like my patch can be used for
0.50.5-r2 without changes and solve this issue again.


I've reported this bug to aspell developers long time ago, but looks like
they don't really do something with this issue. You can track my report here:

Very good detective work. I've checked your patch and the source code and it
does indeed look correct. Although it looks like from the source that they
didn't plan for UTF-8 support at all :-)

Anyway the patch has been included in aspell-0.50
