openoffice spelling failing

[Geoff Crompton <ghc@danpat.net>]

  Hi,

  I'm running openoffice.org v1.1 from unstable. I've installed the
myspell dictionaries, however spell check doesn't work. When the auto
spell feature is on, every word is underlined with the red squiggles.

  Any suggestions on what I need to do to get the spell checking to
work?

  Cheers,
  Geoff
