Description of problem: When using Kate or Kmail (I assume they use aspell?), the spell checker misses obvious misspellings frequently. Examples of misspellings not flagged as incorrect include: gratefull concurrant OpenOffice *does* catch them, so I have been using OpenOffice's spell checker instead. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I don't really know how to find this out. I'm using FC2 and keep current with Yum. How reproducible: See above Actual results: When I enter the words above in Kate or Kmail and do a spell check, I expect them to be flagged as misspelled. They are not. Expected results: Additional info:
current aspell on FC-2 does indeed catch gratefull and concurrant when checking a text file from the command line, kmail, or from evolution (with just in time spell checking)
correction: kmail unverified. confirmed aspell is behaving when called standalone or from another app (evolution)
I checked this issue again to see if recent changes had made any difference. They have not. kmail, kate, and kwrite still show the problem.

If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.
No response from reporter to request for info. FC2 is now the responsibility of Fedora Legacy, and this does not seem to be a security issue. If the problem still occurs in FC4 or FC5, please reopen and update with new information.
