Hello Mike,
Thank you for all of your help. /usr/share/myspell/dicts does exist and does contain dictionaries. I just right clicked on a form and an option was present for adding dictionaries. I tried it and it brought me to Mozilla. I installed the dictionary and it appears to be working. I guess that the add-on didn't survive the upgrade. Thank you again for all of your help. This appears to be solved.

Thank you for that. > > I just tested the form spelling auto-checker and it still is not working. does /usr/share/myspell/dicts exist and does it contain dictionaries ? Does right clicking on a form field display languages ? Mike PS: Please CC the bug when replying.
