For those RedHat 8 users, at least, I may have a solution for bug 35826, the problem where spelling SIGSEGVs, SIGILLs, or just isn't active and can't be enabled.
Thanks to help from Radek Doulik of Ximian, I discovered that installing gnome-spell and aspell from source seemed to fix everything. When I mentioned this, though, I received private mail suggesting that this was too arduous for some. I sympathized with that, as getting all the right development libraries installed was a pain. So when I came across the near-magic automatic RPM builder CheckInstall (http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/) I built some packages. I make no promises as to their utility or quality, but I thought I'd pass 'em along anyhow: http://www.scissor.com/transient/aspell-0.33.7.1-1wbp.i386.rpm http://www.scissor.com/transient/gnome-spell-0.5-1wbp.i386.rpm As you can guess from the URL, these won't stay there forever; if they turn out to be useful, I'll put them somewhere more permanent. If you try these out, you may want to try following these other Radek-recommended steps first: * remove ~/.gnome/gnome-spell * remove ~/.aspell* * remove *spell* packages and reinstall fresh copies Good luck! And let me know if they are of any use.
