evolution and spell checking is now broken

[Andrei Mikhailovsky <andrei@arhont.com>]

Hi

I am wondering if anyone experienced similar problems with Evolution and
spell checking after a recent upgrade.

I've noticed that aspell package has been updated and since then the
spell checking is gone in Evolution. I've double checked that the
gnome-spell and aspell (including dictionaries) is installed. All the
packages seems to be in place, however spell checking fails to work.

This seems to be the case for Abiword as well, the spelling icon can no
longer be clicked, which seems to indicate a general gnome brokenness of
spell checking :-(

Anyone has any ideas on how to fix it?

Andrei
