The problem is that dict-dir is typically
“$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/aspell”, so we can’t choose it at configure
time (unless Aspell expands “$HOME”?).

Even if we did, we’d like to offer users the ability to choose
dictionaries located in a different place.

How would you achieve that?

Thanks for your reply,
Ludo’.
