According to my lookings using:
 locate pspell
Returns:
 /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15
 /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15.0.2

Then using:
 dpkg -S /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15
Returns:
 libaspell15: /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15

 dpkg -S /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15.0.2
Returns: 
 libaspell15: /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15.0.2

So... 

 aptitude install libaspell15 aspell gnome-spell

Will get you aspell, aspell-en (ia, ib and ic versions), pspell and
gnome-spell

Then you should be able to enable it... I know it works for me. Of
course I default to "experimental" and subscribe to Joey Hess' bleeding
archive too... (my double indemnity guarantee!)
