 {{{
 Following the procedure in [1], I have retired the gnome-spell package
 from Fedora 10.  Evolution was the last package in Fedora 9 to require
 it, but Evolution now talks to the enchant package directly for its
 spell checking needs.

 gnome-spell is based on Bonobo, a deprecated GNOME technology, and new
 applications are discouraged from using it.
