app-text/gtkspell: autopatch with enchant instead of useflag should better have a useflag for applying this patch as sometimes this isnt wanted Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 141086 [details] added useflag noenchant
nouse flags are not shiny, use IUSE defaults. Other than that, this patch is here to make gtkspell use an abstration layer (enchant) rather than directly using ${PREFERED_SPELLCHECK} directly. I feel this is better this way so I won't change it. @herd what do you guys think ?

But in my case specificly i would likt to call some specefic aspell calls through it so i dont wont the enchant patch
I'm not exactly thrilled about making this patch optional. I'd say this is simple enough to keep it in an overlay outside portage.
Is there an actual advantage to calling aspell directly?
please provide convincing arguments that would justify the extra work of allowing this and we will consider. Closing wontfix for now.
