Re: spell checking

[christophe barbé <christophe barbe online fr>]

I don't know lisaspell internals but I guess that .la files are a
convenient way to load dynamically library. This allow to not depend to a
library version without the need to follow symbolic link.

instead of 

open .so (link to .so.0)
open .so.0 (link to .so.0.2)
open .so.0.2 (link to .so.0.2.4)
....

you do

open .la
open the real .so file.

And it should come with the libaspell package.
