This is a new one in gnome-2.18, and it looks like it didn't quite get in the book yet. > checking for gmsgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt > checking for xgettext... /usr/bin/xgettext > checking for ENCHANT... no > configure: error: Enchant library not found or too old. Use > --disable-spell to build without spell plugin. Enchant is a spell checking framework used in Abiword. It uses aspell as a backend (as well as hspell and uspell, but they're only needed in languages aspell can't handle). You can get it here: http://www.abisource.com/enchant/ The build is straight ./configure, make, make install and it depends on glib and zlib. Then you should be able to go back to gedit and get things working. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
