[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I totally agree with you that this is an upstream problem and I have
reported it there. But maybe I have not worded my bug correctly (my English
is lacking, sorry). Enchant is working everywhere else on the same system
i.e. in AbiWord, Vim, GtkSpell and gedit. It does not work only in Emacs,
that's why I reported it here, for the benefit of other Arch users
using the package and Emacs.

Again I'm sorry for wasting your time.
