Hm, I don’t have libhunspell-dev installed but I definitely have spellchecking support and Hunspell now shows up as the spellchecker in Preferences. -chris -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Re: Not able to spellcheck in RC4 under Linux
Maybe you need enchant (default on debian), it uses different spell checkers.

Not able to spellcheck in RC4 under Linux
Gentle LyX folk: I have compiled LyX 2.4-RC4 under Kali Linux and it works great but I am unable to spellcheck. Tools → Spellchecker is greyed out and LyX sees no spellchecker engine under Preferences → Spellchecker. Hunspell and the English dictionary are of course installed. I found an old thread saying that Hunspell support had to be explicitly included at configure time, but I believe Hunspell is now built in. At any rate, the old “—use-hunspell” option is not recognized. Spellchecking via Hunspell works fine in the MacOS version of RC4. Help/explanations much appreciated!
