Greetings all;
TDE r4, kmail-1.9.10.
Just in th last 4 or 5 days, the spell checker in the tool pulldown
menu has disappeared. It still works, hilighting the words it
_thinks_ are miss-spelled, but the only way to fix it seems to be
playing the 10,000 moneys writing MacBeth again.
Any body know how to re-enable that spelling thing in the tools menu
and make it work again? It did work, for a few days after I
installed TDE, latest. but it left at about the same time it forgot
40 of the 70 or so filter rules.
It sounds as though you downloaded something or configured something
or some such thing.
I have dl some more stuff, because I use them, but I don't recall that
any of it should have had anything to do with the spell checker.
I would:
a) # aptitude update
# aptitude full-upgrade
What will this full upgrade do, to Jessie? If it is still wheezy, I
am uptodate as of 4 hours ago, but I generally use synaptic.
Because I am a LinuxCNC user, there are added lines in my sources.list:
gene@coyote:/etc/init.d$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb
http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb-src
http://http.debian.net/debian wheezy main contrib non-free

And separately in sources.list.d, a linuxcnc.list
gene@coyote:/etc/apt/sources.list.d$ cat linuxcnc.list
deb
http://linuxcnc.org/ wheezy 2.7-uspace base 2.6

b) If that didn't fix it, I would create a new
user, set up KMail
*minimally* (as near vanilla as possible) in the new user, see if the
problems are still there.
c) uninstall whatever you last installed.
libgtkspell0_2.0.16-1_i386.deb
libhunspell-dev_1.3.2-4_i386.deb
both have now been purged again, but I expect I'd have to logout and
back in to see if its fixed. libhunspell seems to have a long list of stuff
that would have to come out with it, looking like it would demolish
the system. Perhaps I now need to re-install it?
d) rinse and repeat
If the problems are still there, report back - especially if they are
still there but have changed in some way!
Lisi
I'll reinstall libhunspell itself, take a nap & restart for S&G.
Thanks Lisi.
Cheers, Gene Heskett
