Oh well... looks like I did anything wrong what can be done wrong with
this bugreport...

You're right, it's better to remove those scripts.

You're right again, sorry that I forgot that.

So, my plans for the next upload...

- remove vimspell.sh and tcltags.sh
- remove the Ubuntu patch
- notice in the changelog that you discovered these problems

I hope I'll find time next weekend for a new upload.
