Dear maintainer of the hunspell-en packages,

the lack of the field `Priority` in the d/control stanzas for the binary
hunspell packages, combined with the presence of `Priority: standard` in
the source package stanza, ends up setting the Priority of all
hunspell-en packages to `standard`, including hunspell-en-au and -ca.

It would be better to set `Priority: standard` only for the US variant,
just like for the word lists.

Regards,
