Hi, All
I have had problems installing new dictionaries in Firefox since I left
the old 3.X series. Now, on FF 9.0, it is still the same.
I am able to install a new dictionary, just can't use it. I even tried
and installed a manual and an auto dictionary switcher, and the new
dictionary does not even appear on their list of available dictionaries.
Am I missing something?
For some weird reason, Firefox as packaged by Gentoo doesn't support
dictionaries. It only supports hunspell (or aspell, can't remember)
which you need to install first along with dictionaries for it. After
you do that, you will get a gazillion of English dictionaries that you
can't disable. You'll need to live with it, since no one cares about
this bug.
