Bug#793740: kwrite: spell checking does not work at all
Hey,
Alright, running kwrite with::
LANGUAGE=en LANG=en kwrite
works (with spotty highlighting for auto-check, but yeah).
My locale says::
LANG=en_GB.utf8
LANGUAGE=en_GB:en
however. I installed everything (on a clean slate Debian testing
machine) by saying::
aptitude install kwrite sonnet-plugins aspell-en hunspell-en-gb \
kde-cli-tools libqt5xcbqpa5
Note, I'm not running a KDE environment, hence the 'libqt5xcbqpa5'
package. I'm simply using kwrite in XFCE (not even that's entirely
true, as I'm reporting this bug for somebody else :).
The kde-cli-tools report failure, too::
$ kcmshell5 spellchecking
Could not find module 'spellchecking'. See kcmshell5 --list for the full list of modules.
Nevertheless, I did a complete purge and reinstall cycle, even went so
far as to install 'plasma-framework' (I have no stomach to try
task-kde-desktop). However, none of the above changed.
Hypothesis: hunspell is never asked.
Supporting: Removing aspell-en yields the same behaviour as before,
this time with
No language dictionaries for the language: "en"
in the terminal.
Also:

Yes. Yes, it does. My point was, however, that a '/usr//usr/' path
anywhere can't be healthy. But it can possibly safely be ignored, I
wouldn't know.
Thanks!
