Subject: 25.1; Problem using Hunspell

Hello,

Judging from ispell.el it should work with Hunspell, so I tried to use
it. But attempts to check a word produce the following error message.

| Starting new Ispell process hunspell with ru_RU dictionary...
| hunspell release 3.1.12 or greater is required (ispell-check-version)

The latest version of Hunspell is 1.4.1 as can be seen here:
https://github.com/hunspell/hunspell/releases

As I understand, the problem arises because ispell-check-version finds
version information using regexp

"(but really Hunspell \\([0-9]+\\.[0-9\\.-]+\\)?)"

The output of hunspell -vv does not match it, hence the results.

$ hunspell -vv < /dev/null
Hunspell 1.4.0
$ 

Best regards
