Comment 1 Thomas Zander 2006-04-15 14:11:52 UTC
Maybe you can remove your kwordrc (to be found in $HOME/.kde/share/config/kwordrc) and see if that makes any difference.

If it does; please attach the faulty kwordrc to this bugreport.
Comment 2 Sergio Davis 2006-04-18 12:57:15 UTC
It crashes with and without the ~/.kde/share/config/kwordrc, looking
at the backtrace it seems the problem is related to aspell, maybe it
is the version of aspell I'm using. I will try to update aspell and
see if the problem persists. Besides that, the rest of the koffice
suite seems to work OK.

Yes it looks like a aspell bug to me.
Could be a corrupted dictionary...

Indeed, I followed your suggestion, and uninstalling the spanish aspell 
dictionary (aspell-es 0.50.2) seems to solve the problem, but the bug doesn't 
happen with koffice 1.4.2 and the same dictionary. By the way, I'm using 
aspell 0.50.5.

Comment 5 Jiri Klement 2006-05-15 22:02:21 UTC
I have the same problem, kword crash with aspell installed.

koffice 1.4.2-r6
aspell-en 0.51.1
aspell 0.50.5-r4

When I unistall aspell-en then everything works fine. After instaling back, kword crashs.

See the version number mismatch?

I've upgraded to aspell 0.60.4 and reemerged aspell-en. KWord has started, but it's crashed after I've written first letter.

I've checked spelling in other koffice apps:
kspread works
kpresenter crashes

Then I've upgraded to aspell-en 6.0.0. Now it seems that everything works fine.

Comment 9 Raúl 2006-12-13 16:18:58 UTC
I'm using libaspell 0.60-4 on debian testing (future etch) and as stated on #128067 I still suffer the problem. As I have been explained there, there is a problem with aspell so I have submitted the report upstream and you can see the progress here:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1614925&group_id=245&atid=100245

I hope this will be solved soon, since kword 1.6.1 also suffer this bug.
