Just a thought, but according to README.claws included within the tarball, it stipulates that version 0.50 or newer of aspell is required. What version have you got on your system, Ian?
Hi Martyn,
I think I am using 0.5:
bash-2.05a$ aspell -v @(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell 0.50.3)
*HOWEVER*
-- Begin Quote --- a. Requirements
Note: As for version 0.8.3 (and cvs version 0.8.2claws3), Sylpheed-Claws uses the new GNU/aspell 0.50 for spell checking instead of the obsolete pspell and old aspell 0.33.x. You will need to upgrade your system. See http://www.gnu.org/software/aspell for instructions on how to do this.
The spell checker in Sylpheed requires the new GNU/aspell library (http://www.gnu.org/software/aspell), version 0.50 or newer.
Yep, think I upgraded Aspell ok.
You also need the dictionaries. Check GNU/aspell home page for how to download and install them.
NB: The old dictionaries used by the old aspell will not work.
Oooooopppps! Guess who has forgotten to also upgrade his dictionaries! Could this be the problem... New Aspell but old dictionaries???
Thanks for spotting that. Will upgrade my dictionaries tomorrow and retry the compile!
Ian.
