bug#31724: 24.5; Ispell not finding dictionary in Gentoo

[Stefan Kuczera]

Ispell is not recognizing aspell in Gentoo Linux as the aspell version
name includes the letters r and c (currently: 0.60.7_rc1). This can be
fixed by changing:

"(but really Aspell \\([0-9]+\\.[0-9\\.-]+\\)?)" nil t)

to

"(but really Aspell \\([0-9]+\\.[0-9rc\\.-]+\\)?)" nil t)

in ispell.el

Thanks, this should be fixed in Emacs 26.1, see bug#29801.

Thanks for sending us a bug fix.

  > Ispell is not recognizing aspell in Gentoo Linux

Gentoo is a version of the GNU/Linux system.  By calling it "Linux"
without citing GNU, they are misattributing our work.  That's doing
wrong to us, as GNU developers.

Please don't propagate their unfairness -- please correct it by saying
"Gentoo GNU/Linux".

See https://gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html and
https://gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html, plus the history in
https://gnu.org/gnu/the-gnu-project.html.
