tod, More spell stuff :( I'll work with you on this one, if you'd like. It seems from a cursory examination at rpmfind.net that unsq and sq are provided by the ispell package. Even though I have ispell installed here, I do not have those two, so perhaps the real culprit is ispell?
Hmmm... Although the ebuild is stale and needs a syntax updating, I just succesfully merged ispell-de. I have unsq in /usr/bin/unsq A 'qpkg -f /usr/bin/unsq' results in ispell-3.1.20-r1, so this WORKSFORME. Try remerging ispell, then ispell-de.
just did a emerge ispell ispell-de, but ispell didn't install unsq so ispell-de couldn't emerge. installed ispell: ispell-3.2.06-r1 qpkf -l ispell : app-text/ispell-3.2.06-r1 * CONTENTS: /usr /usr/bin /usr/bin/ispell /usr/bin/deformat-c /usr/bin/deformat-sh /usr/bin/buildhash /usr/bin/icombine /usr/bin/ijoin /usr/bin/munchlist /usr/bin/findaffix /usr/bin/tryaffix /usr/lib /usr/lib/ispell /usr/lib/ispell/americanmed.hash /usr/lib/ispell/american.hash /usr/lib/ispell/english.aff /usr/lib/ispell/britishmed.hash /usr/lib/ispell/british.hash /usr/lib/ispell/english.hash /usr/share /usr/share/info /usr/share/man /usr/share/man/man1 /usr/share/man/man1/buildhash.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/findaffix.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/ispell.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/munchlist.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/tryaffix.1.gz /usr/share/man/man5 /usr/share/man/man5/english.5.gz /usr/share/man/man5/ispell.5.gz /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/ispell-3.2.06-r1 /usr/share/doc/ispell-3.2.06-r1/Contributors.gz /usr/share/doc/ispell-3.2.06-r1/README.gz /usr/share/doc/ispell-3.2.06-r1/WISHES.gz
I have masked out ispell-3.2.06 blah, because it seems completely b0rked. The sq and unseq are nowhere to be found. No man pages, nothing in the source tarball.
Hi! The changelog in the comments of the Makekit file says the sq and unsq etc for foreign language were removed on purpose. Need to find out what they were replaced with.
the -r2 ebuild of ispell sorts out the ridiculous sq and unsq omissions from upstream, so ispell-de should now work out of the box, along with all the other ispell dictionaries which require them.
