Description cat22 2018-07-20 13:29:02 UTC

I installed GNU Aspell and the American English dictionary for it.
(aspell, aspell-en and libaspell15 were all installed)
All instances of Kate were closed, on starting Kate I loaded a simple text file and purposely misspelled a word.
 Then I clicked on Tools -> spelling and set automatic Spell Checking to selected
The misspelled word is not detected.
I tried Check spelling from cursor and same result
so, i restarted Kate form a Konsole window and when  I try to check spelling i see:

I checked in Yast and libKFSonnetCore5, libKFSonnetCore5-lang and libKFSonnetUI5 are installed

32 bit stuff is not installed as my installed Kate is 64 bit

I wonder if there may possibly be a character case error in the locale or something related to that as i found that type of error in an example of strfmon not long ago. eg: "En_US" vs "en_US" only one is correct not both

What backend have been enabled by openSUSE when compiling Sonnet?

It is possible that Sonnet is compiled with only hspell/hunspell support... I'm just guessing here...

Please provide the requested information. Thanks!

Comment 3 cat22 2018-07-20 19:14:40 UTC

How do i determine what backend is being used? Actually i dont understand the request.

Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2018-07-20 19:24:10 UTC

Sonnet on openSUSE indeed uses hunspell instead of the old aspell. Please install 'hunspell' packages and 'myspell' dictionaries.

Comment 5 cat22 2018-07-20 20:29:14 UTC

Works with hunspell - this can be closed
The reference to aspell in the Kate handbook should be removed
