Package: ifrench
Version: 1.0-3

I couldn't get ispell 3.1.18 to use the french.hash file supplied in
this package.  I recompiled the ispell binary myself (subject of another
bug report) to include 8 bit characters, but it still didn't work. 
Here are the errors I received...

`ispell -d french /tmp/temp.txt`

Debian ispell 3.1.18-1 (NO 8-BIT)

Illegal format hash table /usr/lib/ispell/french.hash
 - expected magic2 0x9602, got 0x0

My ispell 3.1.18 (8-BIT)

Illegal format hash table /usr/lib/ispell/french.hash
