Problems spell checking within Sylpheed-claws 0.7.8 + ispell

Thu, 18 Jul 2002 07:02:26 -0700 

Hi 

I have just upgraded my emailer to Sylpheed-claws 0.7.8. I have tried to
build in the spellchecking options by deinstalling the exsisting version
of Sylpheed-claws then I installed pspell-ispell which installs pspell
and ispell. I can run ispell on the command line at it will spell check
indevidual words or files and appears to work fine.

I enabled the spell check options with in Sylpheed-claws and selected a
dictonary (doesn't matter which one) and as soon as I opened a email
compose window an error message poped up with the following text.

        ERROR

        Spell Checker could not be started.
        Unable to load the "ispell" module.

I then tried removing pspell-ispell, pspell, ispell & Sylpheed-claws and
installing pspell, aspell and finally Sylpheed-claws, but that just
generates the same error message.

All this was done on a freshly upgraded FreeBSD 4.6-stable, CVSUPed as
of 11pm 17 June 2002 and built at 4:12 am. The ports tree was cvsuped at
the same time and extracted at around 5am.

Any one got any ideas?

Thanks for your time,

David.
