Hi,

Sorry for the delay in replying.

I've imported your package in the svn under pkg. You can do future
changes there.

Nice work with the patch for the Makefile and the use of dpatch.

I edited debian/rules to copy files from debian instead of using
debian/install. The reason for this is that I want 'make install' to
work (which was also added to debian/rules).

After building the package with the changes I did the result is:

debdiff /tmp/aspell-ar-large_1.2-0-1_all.deb
aspell-ar-large_1.2-0-1_all.deb
[The following lists of changes regard files as different if they have
different names, permissions or owners.]

Files in second .deb but not in first
-------------------------------------
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/lib/aspell/arabic-large.alias
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/lib/aspell/l-ar-large.cmap
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/lib/aspell/l-ar-large.cset

Control files: lines which differ (wdiff format)
------------------------------------------------
Installed-Size: [-2268-] {+2332+}

The problem is that I still get this error while installing (got it also
 with your original package):
Setting up aspell-ar-large (1.2-0-1) ...
aspell-autobuildhash: processing: ar-large [ar-large]
Error: The file "/usr/lib/aspell/l-ar.cset" can not be opened for reading.

I'm trying to look why that file is looked at instead of the
l-ar-large.cset which we install.

I also think the the README.Debian isn't needed. I've added the size
warning to the package description (people should be warning before
installing the package).
