Package: iceweasel Version: 10.0-1~bpo60+1 Severity: normal
NB I'm running the Debian Mozilla team's release. I was on such a bpo release before bpo60, but I noticed the bpo60 upgrade a few days ago and that's when this problem started. As I remember previous versions, you'd enable spell checking by selecting "Check my spelling as I type" on Preferences->Advanced->General, and that would enable "Check spelling" on any text entry fields on webpages. Since the latest upgrade, the "Check Spelling" option (found by right clicking on a text entry field on a page) is never checked. It can be switched on in the right-click menu and will then work (and the language used last _is_ remembered) but it'll be necessary to enable it again in every text field on the same page, in any new tabs, and after firefox is shut down and started again. Once enabled in a field, spell checking does work fine, and it's clearly seeing all the same dictionaries it used to. Yes the preferences option is checked! I tried clearing it and setting again; makes no difference. I've tried moving my ~/.mozilla/firefox aside but a clean slate makes no difference. Running in safe mode makes no difference. A workround is obviously to manually set "Check spelling" on every text field you're writing in.
