Package aspell-fr missing

Hello,

I tried to install the GNU Aspell French dictionary package which would be logically named aspell-fr. However, the only package I could find was aspell-fo, which has contradictory descriptions:

Code: Select all

Description du paquet:
 aspell-fo

 GNU Aspell 0.50 Faroese (F�oyskt) Dictionary Package.
...
aspell-fr: aspell-fr
aspell-fr:
aspell-fr: GNU Aspell French Word List Package.
aspell-fr:
After installing it, it turns out to be the GNU Aspell Faroese dictionary package.

I finally found the right package in the Slackware repository:
/slackware/slackware-13.37/extra/aspell-word-lists/aspell-fr-0.50_3-noarch-4.txz (at ftp.gwdg.de)

The problem is probably that the SalixOS package list does not include the package:
/i486/slackware-13.37/extra/PACKAGES.TXT (at download.salixos.org)

Thanks to add the package in the list.

Mmmm yes it's an error. Probably some "sync" problem. I inform the team.

Now this one was weird. There must be some bogus character in the aspell-fo package description file. I added an extra safeguard in our PACKAGES.TXT creation script, so it should now be ok. Thanks for the report!
