+Yes, you are right.
+
+I'm thinking of disabling Aspell support (so therefore no more 
+BuildRequires/Requires for Aspell) in enchant at all, and make Aspell as 
+deprecated as possible.

+What do you think about it?

+Yes, this is true.
+There is also additional issue inside Hunspell dictionaries like in 
+hunspell-gv, hunspell-az, hunspell-de, etc. We have in these packages 
+build requirements on Aspell. For this I will prepare policies, but 
+rather after the cleaning.
