Hi, Kevin

I have found some problems using the Debian spanish
aspell dict with aspell. Seems that for some words
weird things happen when using the -m option, e.g., for
the string 'pa',

$ echo "pa" | aspell -a -m --local-data-dir=. -d
./es.rws > test.log

gives test.log

@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really
Aspell 0.60.4)
& pa 24 0: pea, pía, púa, pan, par, paz, a, pe, pi,
epa, opa, pH, ca, da, ea, fa, ha, ja, ka, la, na, ta,
va, ya, pe-+a, par-
+a

while

$ echo "pa" | ispell -a -m -d spanish > test.log

gives, as expected,

@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 10/10/95, patch 1
& pa 24 0: a, ca, da, ea, epa, fa, ha, ja, ka, la, na,
opa, pan, par, paz, pe, pea, pH, pi, pía, púa, ta, va,
ya, par-ar+a, pe-e+a

I have put the dict at

http://corbu.aq.upm.es/~agmartin/aspell/

as aspell6-es-1.9.tgz. It is derived from the ispell
dict and uses affix compression.

The relevant flags seem to be

SFX P e a e
SFX V ar a ar

(problem also appears if last one is changed to r 0 ar)

Best wishes
