As said before, `ispell-dictionary-alist` is assembled from the output
of `aspell dicts`. For each line in the output,
`ispell-aspell-find-dictionary` is called. Example:
ELISP> (ispell-aspell-find-dictionary "de_DE")
("de_DE" "[[:alpha:]]" "[^[:alpha:]]" "" t
("-d" "de_DE")
nil utf-8)
It doesn’t work with `de-alt`:
ELISP> (ispell-aspell-find-dictionary "de-alt")
nil
I used `edebug` on `ispell-aspell-find-dictionary` and found that there
is pattern matching happening that strips the variant `alt` from
`de-alt`. Then a path is assembled, `fullpath`, which evaluates to:
"/usr/lib/aspell-0.60/de.dat"
That `.dat` file doesn’t exist. For `de-alt` it is a mistake to strip
the variant. The correct path is: "/usr/lib/aspell-0.60/de-alt.dat"
