Description Alam 2009-05-30 03:55:33 UTC
Version:           4.2.3-1 (using KDE 4.2.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Fedora bug (Detai: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=500559)
When tried to use Marathi hunspell in kwrite, default spell checker failed to
appear with error like no language dictionaries.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kdesdk-4.2.2-2.fc11.x86_64
kdebase-4.2.2-2.fc11.x86_64
enchant-1.4.2-5.fc11.x86_64
hunspell-mr-20060920-2.fc11.noarch
enchant-1.4.2-5.fc11.i586


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start KDE in Marathi
2.For easy testing copy text from http://mr.wikipedia.org to kwrite
3. Apply spell checker

Actual results:
kwrite used English locale hunspell dictionary when asked to spell check for
some Indic language and for other Indic languages its dialog window not
appeared at all.


Expected results:
Kwrite should use default locale hunspell dictionary when asked to spell check.

Additional info:
So In summary,
Common error I got for all Indic languages is
WARNING **: Error loading plugin: /usr/lib/enchant/libenchant_myspell.so: wrong
ELF class: ELFCLASS32

Languages for which spell checker didn't started are
kwrite(5263): No language dictionaries for the language :  "mr" 
kwrite(5300): No language dictionaries for the language :  "gu" 
kwrite(5429): No language dictionaries for the language :  "ml" 
kwrite(5441): No language dictionaries for the language :  "hi" 
kwrite(5457): No language dictionaries for the language :  "pa" 

Languages for which spell checker started but in English dictionary are
te_IN, ta_IN, bn_IN, as_IN, or_IN

That one is an Enchant bug and not related to the "No language dictionaries" issue (fixing that bug in Enchant didn't fix the "No language dictionaries" issue), see the Fedora bug report.

Can we have some way by which it will not be needed to set default spell checker for current locale? It should be automatic process. If I log into Hindi language then I should get Hindi set as default language in KDE system settings.

With the latest version (KDE on Debian), it was working fine. With user language set to Hindi, spellcheck (using hunspell hindi) defaulted to Hindi.
I will check on Kubuntu also.
