You are right. Spelling suggestion for Greek words is not working for years.
I will prepare a report and open a new bug.
Thank you for your reply.

Easy test case:
1) Open evolution and create a new mail
2) Edit Current languages verify that *any, but at least one*
dictionary, e.g. English is checked. You don't have to install the Greek
dictionary to see the problem.
3) Paste the following two lines:

Yup, Panagiotis fixed the bug. A single line that gave people frustration for
more than 5 years!
Please get this into Karmic.
Let me say again that this affects *many* non-English languages (e.g. German,
French, Russian etc), not just Greek and Hebrew as the bug title says.
For anyone
Great news! I hope the patch gets into Karmic. Thank you Panagiotis!

Evgeny, I *did* try with Russian, with the words you posted above:
проверка русской арфографии
The first two words weren't underlined, the third one was.
But *it matters where you click* on the third word. If you click between:
ар = no (spell suggestion)
рф = yes
фо = yes
ог = no
гр = no
ра = no
I got something more specific:
Cyrillic а = U+0430 = no suggestion
Cyrillic р = U+0440 = no suggestion
Cyrillic ф = U+0444 = suggestion
Look at the least significant bytes.
ASCII 30 = character 0 = not a letter
ASCII 40 = character @ = not a letter
ASCII 44 = character D = it's a letter
The
the mistypes I have used for test while I had Greek dictionary installed are
not shown in F7-run
Evgeny, perhaps you 've added them in the user dictionary?
Have a look at ~/.config/enchant

I didn't. And mind that those mistypes are still underlined and still do
react to right-click (when clinking on appropriate letters). But on F7
they don't show up.

Evgeny, you're good, you found out that there are two bugs, not one: one
concerning forward scanning of the text, and one concerning backward
scanning (like when you right click in the middle of a word and the
speller needs to find out the beginning and the end of the word).
You may get a better
Alkis, now it looks like you're totally and completely right. I have the
same experience with the word арфографии, and I have tested some more
Russian mistypes in long words, including both the letters that should

indeed they
Once again you're almost totally right, Alkis. The only point where you
are wrong is that I've only noticed some strange behaviour, and you were
the one to actually find that there are two bugs.
And thanks for the tip, though I know that a lot of Russian names are of
Greek origin, and I already
Confirming for Intrepid - evolution 2.24.0-0ubuntu2.
I don't think it's an aspell problem, because gedit and the rest apps that use
it work without problems.
Evgeny, now that your Russian spelling is broken, does it work in gedit?
What other gtkhtml apps are there, to test them and see if all
Alkis, I have to say that my once-broken Russian spellchecking seems to
work again, but as I don't use spellchecking too much, I cannot tell at
which point it got repaired. Maybe is has something to do with Gutsy-to-
Hardy-to-Intrepid upgrade, maybe some other things, I honestly don't
know.

Oops, sorry, I got it wrong. If I use that specific mistypes I used for
Russian when researching this bug (and those were the mistypes that
showed incorrect behaviour for Russian), they are still broken - in
Evolution, but not in Gedit.

Still broken for Hebrew in Intrepid. It seems to be one of those eternal
bugs never to be fixed.

Spelling suggestion in Greek works for me under special circumstances,
i.e. in fake words like αβγαnd, with English letters stacked right
before or after the Greek letters. And *only* when I click on these
English letters (nd) do I get a spelling menu. I don't get a spelling
menu when I click on
It seems that *all* languages that contain non-ascii symbols are affected by
this.
E.g. write Hööörz and click on the middle ö. No spell suggestions.
But if you click on H or rz, you get spell suggestions.

Well, Russian uses Cyrillic letters (that are not ASCII at all), so your
guess, Alkis, is definitely wrong.

The sensible thing to do would be as well to try to contact someone from

And keep in mind that there's a problem with Hebrew, too. Maybe some of

Evgeny, would it be possible to check on your system for Greek or
Hebrew?
It is quite weird that it works for all languages you checked. Did you
manage to find a language that did not work?
When you check in different languages, I suppose you clicked on
System/Administration/Language support
Simos, I did not exactly follow the way you've described, I used the way

Anyway, I was able to reproduce this bug with Greek. Here's what was

Evgeny, many thanks for the detailed testing and reporting.
Sorry for messing up your Russian spell checking in Evolution.
This gives a hint that something might be wrong in the Greek spelling package.
If someone from the fellow Greeks can dissect the aspell-el .deb file, it would

What would be the difference between languages, whether the spell
checker works or not?
It is weird that it works for Russian but does not work for other
