Description Jaakko Holster 2006-05-24 14:03:47 UTC

Version:           1.5.0 (using KDE 3.5.2, Kubuntu Package 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu18 dapper)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.15-22-686

I have Finnish language installed for ispell. I've configured the KDE spellchecker in kcontrol and it works greatly in KDE applications. However, I'm not able to use Finnish spellchecking in kword. Kword seems to have its own spellchecker configuration and there's only English variations (EN_xx) available. I tried to wipe out koffice/kword rc files under ~/.kde, which didn't help.

Could this be the reason?   http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91581

Comment 2 Jaakko Holster 2006-05-25 00:02:49 UTC

Bug 91581 is aspell related, but I'm using ispell. The Finnish dictionary file is located under /usr/lib/ispell/ and is listed in kcontrol when using ispell as a client.

My guess: kword uses aspell, not ispell, while other KDE apps uses the client configured in kcontrol? If so, why kword doesn't use the "standard" solution?

Comment 3 David Faure 2006-05-26 11:06:38 UTC

No, no, kword uses kspell2, which is a new kde library around both ispell and aspell dictionaries.
But the rest of KDE uses the older kspell1 library, which has a huge number of issues, but was, well,
around for longer, so they both have bugs but not the same.

Sorry that I didn't notice the difference (ispell/aspell) between the two bug reports; must be another
problem indeed, then. Your problem must be in kspell2's handling of ispell dictionaries, but
I have no idea where to begin looking... Zack might know...

SVN commit 1030665 by zander:

Fixes app-wide language changes to be honoured by the speller.

Remove the koffice-local clone of the config dialog and use the one
from kdeui instead.
Also listen to the language change and store that in our apps config
file and restore that properly on restart.
