Description Grant Hill 2004-11-03 01:34:59 UTC
when the language is changed to en_GB and a document checked, aspell crashes as though it hasn't found the dictionary. Using en_US and en_CA result in the expected behaviour. Version of aspell is aspell-0.50.5-r4 with aspell-en-0.51.1.  I've tried re-emerging aspell-en but the problem isn't fixed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.run aspell --lang=en_GB on a text file
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
aspell does not run

Expected Results:  
aspell should have run with the GB english dictionary

Comment 1 Anders Rune Jensen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-04-02 10:52:07 UTC
Very strange. Works fine here.

aspell --lang=en_GB --check british

Could you post the contents of /usr/lib/aspell/?

Sorry, I'd forgot about this bug. 

The problem seems to now be resolved (I went completely ~x86), apologies for not mentioning this. Please feel free to close the bug.
