Description Chris Chan 2011-01-31 01:24:38 UTC

app-text/enchant with USE=aspell pulls in virtual/aspell which doesnt exist, it should
pull in app-text/aspell. webkit-gtk depends entirely on enchant, and maybe browsers depend
on webkit-gtk

Reassigning to GNOME team.

By the way aspell dicts use old virtual style with PROVIDE="virtual/aspell-dict". Can it be a bug in package manager maybe?

Please attach full build.log and emerge --info

"Grepping" in the tree reports a lot of more ebuilds RDEPENDing on virtual/aspell-dict :-/
