 Thanks Farnk:

 I looked for the dictionary with hwereis and locate. The only Abiword 
dictionary was in my CVS download file ~/abiword/abidistfiles. I tried 
copying that back to the /usr/share/AbiSuite/ but Abiword still wpuld not 
spell check. 
 Finally I reinstalled the original Abiword-0.9.6.1 with:
make UNIX_CAN_BUILD_STATIC=0 install 
as root. This installed the fully functioning Abiword. The problem is I need 
the CVS version so I can verify which bugs have been fixed.
