[Bug 892022] [NEW] Errors in german spell-checker

[Michael Piefel]

Public bug reported:

Spell checking works (unlike #559894), but makes some mistakes. They seem to relate mostly to the letter ‘ß’, possibly introduced wrongly while trying to adapt to the spelling reform a few years back. In particular, the following words are underlined:
  ==> Maß Spaß heißt Kloß Fuß
They are all quite correct. I’m sure there are dozens more. It is not a problem with ‘ß’ in general, as ‘weiß’ is correctly identified as spelled correctly. Sorry for the repetitiveness.

PS: This is most certainly not an empathy bug, but I don’t know which
package is responsible for spell checking here.
