Some more infomation would be helpful. What are your USE flags?
this is what i have in make.conf: USE="X gnome -arts -ldap esd -kde -apm gtk2 dvd tcltk imap"
Can you (re)install aspell and aspell-en and then try? If that does work then re-install gtkspell and try.
works now
It worked after re-installing those packages, or just randomly decided to work? Just want to make sure.
it worked after reinstalling all of the mentioned packages
Excellent. Did you end up upgrading those packages or were you re-installing the same versions over?
I updated aspell and gtkspell
OK interesting. That's the third person I know (including myself) who've had those problems. For me I just needed to reinstall those apps. I don't know how we can force emerge to re-install an existing package.
Closing this.
