Hi, Kurt and James,

I am temporarily reassigning this bug report to both vim and
dictionaries-common-dev, so vim maintaners are aware of it and can
share their POV. I will not go anywhere without their approval.

I have been looking at
https://github.com/vim/vim/tree/master/runtime/spell and
http://snapshot.debian.org/package/vim-spellfiles/ to have an idea
about this issue. Seems vim uses myspell dictionaries (or early
hunspell dicts). Current hunspell dicts normally use a number of
things that seem unsupported by vim spellchecker, so while using
recent hunspell dicts may appear to work, it will likely work worse
than old files.

I can think of two approaches, resurrecting vim-spellfiles package
and/or creating vim dicts from packages currently using a myspell dict
(normally as a source for aspell dict). Have to ellaborate a bit more.

James, ¿what do you think about this?

Regards,
