Which version(s) are you referring to on this one? If you've just checked one that would suffice, i just need a starting point to figure out why the system hunspell (with all of its system dictionary paths or w/e) aren't used instead. I am doing this with ff 31.1.1. Please check about:config , the 'spellchecker.dictionary_path' setting. What value is that holding? Gentoo's ebuilds set this path to /usr/share/myspell by default via the 'all-gentoo.js' prefs file. The /usr/lib64/firefox/dictionaries path should still be included in the code, though not explicitly set in prefs.js, so that any extra user-installed dictionaries (via extensions) are still used. If you have dictionaries there -and- in the system i believe it will allow the extensions-installed one to take precedence, and that is likely the desired behaviour. Weird it is set to /usr/share/myspell in the about:config value But still I get no spellchecking in firefox, in chromium it works well. :/ (In reply to Tomáš Chvátal from comment #4) > Weird it is set to /usr/share/myspell in the about:config value > > But still I get no spellchecking in firefox, in chromium it works well. :/ right click in any text box go down to languages and select which you prefer to be used If you feel I have closed your bug and it is still a current issue, please reopen and update it completely. We will not work bugs that have no ebuild in tree any longer or can not be reproduced with a current system. Thank You for your support and understanding The Mozilla Team |
