Ok. Thank you. Waiting until etch gets released is fine. I might be able to do new
upstream releases and packages by then with all the suggestions.

Yeah thanks. One question, should aspell-tl get a new changelog? I just left
the old ispell-tl changelog entries there, or should I rename it as
changelog.presplit and create a new changelog for aspell-tl?

That makes sense. Thanks Agustin!
