Something sure seems busted. I've always been able to do ESC-$ to
check the spelling of a word in emacs and it has worked through all the
evolutions from ispell to aspell and wot-not, but I just tried it
on my fully updated fedora 11 emacs and got this:
Loading ispell...done
Starting new Ispell process [default] ...
ispell-init-process: Can't open affix or dictionary files for dictionary named "POSIX".
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.2.06 (but really Hunspell 1.2.8)
So I guess it is using hunspell, but it can't find a dictionary either.
