I've never touched aspell before, but here's a patch that seems to fix it.

Bump.

This nags at me too :-) I don't like it when an Ubuntu Linux system complains about not knowing words such as "Ubuntu" or "Linux".

Just typing in this dialog in Firefox has highlighted Ubuntu 3 times :-) And the suggestions when I right click on it are absurd.

Soren, would you mind preparing an updated debdiff for Intrepid?

Note that this is pretty obsolete now, since the world moved to hunspell. Can you redo this patch for hunspell, please?

Marked bug 307562 as a duplicate. Though I thought I had seen such bug reports as this before, I can't seem to find them.
