Bug Description

Binary package hint: dictionaries-common

This bug is a duplicate of http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=591925

I am currently running Ubuntu 10.10.

Flyspell-mode does work anymore because of a bug in
/usr/share/emacs23/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/flyspell.el

Fix is to change the line:
(called-interactively-p 'interactive))
with
(called-interactively-p))

I then ran:
# /usr/bin/emacs23 -batch -f batch-byte-compile \
/usr/share/emacs23/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/flyspell.el

To fix the problem.
