Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.2) Installed from: Gentoo Packages OS: Linux The problem is: After some manipulations with packages on my system i've noticed, that dictionary list in kspell config dialog contains only default dictionaries for each of installed spellcheckers. I've search in bugtrackers and the net alot and found, similar bugs... fixed ones =) But thouse fixes didn't help me, so, having them in mind, i started to search the kde sources... Luckily, I found the problem and even temporarily solved it, but i think it should be solved in the sources. So, that is what i found: <from kdelibs-3.5.2 package. file -- configure.in> aspell_datadir="/usr/lib/aspell" if test -f "/usr/bin/pspell-config"; then aspell_datadir=`/usr/bin/pspell-config --pkgdatadir` <<<THIS IS WRONG fi And that is what </usr/bin/pspell-config --pkgdatadir> returns: /usr/share/aspell All is right, it IS aspell datadir, but later, in <kdelibs/kdeui/ksconfig.cpp> this <aspell_datadir> variable is used as directory to search for dictionaries. And this is WRONG, because aspell dictionaries are in </usr/lib/aspell>. If you reffer to the aspell config file (or it's builtin default configuration), you'll notice, that there is two directory options: <dict-dir> and <data-dir>. Evidently, you need the first one, not the second. Solution: The "trick" is: you need to use <aspell> with <config [option]> command instead of <pspell-config> <in kdelibs package. file -- configure.in> aspell_datadir="/usr/lib/aspell" if test -f "/usr/bin/aspell"; then aspell_datadir=`/usr/bin/aspell config dict-dir` <<<THIS IS RIGHT fi
