Well there is always something to learn. I created a kde.repo. My aspell
is also aspell-o-60.6-5.fc11.i586 and the directory under /usr/lib is
also aspell-0.60 but no dictionaries within. If the aspell on your
system is later yum does not think so on my machine.

I am boggled by the idea that kde has its own separate repository for
f11. What would that be. I installed kde through the fedora repos so I
would expect all kde updates would come from fedora repos.

Can someone explain all this? Especially since aspell is not a
particularly kde product.

Any further testimony on this matter. Is it Bugzilla time or not?
