Description Jay Berkenbilt 2011-06-14 17:35:59 UTC
Description of problem:

Running aspell on my RHEL 6.1 x86_64 system fails to find the English word lists.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


% rpm -qa aspell
aspell-0.60.6-12.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. aspell list
  
Actual results:

Error: No word lists can be found for the language "en_US".

Expected results:

should expect words from standard input and check their spelling

Additional info:

yum search doesn't find any aspell dictionaries.  Searching from my Red Hat account through rhel6 packages also doesn't find any.  In RHEL5, there was an aspell-en package that provided English word lists, but I'm not finding that in RHEL6.  Maybe there's some package that's missing.  I can use hunspell in the mean time.  I'm hoping this is just operator error, but it's worth noting that I didn't do anything special to get aspell installed, so I would expect it to work.

Installing the 32-bit version of aspell doesn't solve the problem.
