Right, one spell-checker (which can do different things
depending on word, region, whole buffer etc) should be enough
IMO...
$ aptitude why aspell
i zenity Depends libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 (>= 2.15.1)
i A libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 Depends libenchant-2-2 (>= 2.2.3)
i A libenchant-2-2 Depends hunspell-en-us | hunspell-dictionary | myspel
l-dictionary | aspell-dictionary | ispell-dic
tionary
i A aspell-en Provides aspell-dictionary
i A aspell-en Depends aspell (>= 0.60.3-2)
$ aptitude why ispell
i iswedish Depends ispell (>= 3.3.02)
Hm, what does that mean? I installed zenity so got aspell?
What is zenity? "Zenity allows you to display GTK+ dialogs
from shell scripts" - why did I even install that?
