As I understand evo needs gnome-speller. The latest version of gnome speller, needs masked version of pspell, I tried to build it anyway, but it failed, so I left it atm.
I'll take this azarah if you have no objections. I have been working on it anyway :) Current status: Updated pspell ebuilds stuck on aspell build failure (seems to be an upstream problem) Once I get aspell working, gnome-spell is trivial
I am about to check if this works, because bug #892 regarding the aspell issue has been resolved.
I added gnome-spell, and updated some spell stuff. Evo now works with spell checking .. have a look at: http://www.gentoo.org/~azarah/evolution-spell.jpg let me know ....
I emerge'd gnome-spell, restarted Evolution ... now I have spell checking :) Thanks guys!
