Description Ryan Farmer 2017-09-22 20:57:47 UTC
Description of problem:

After updating to today's release of Hunspell, most of the words I type correctly are underscored as if I had misspelled them. It does this to me using the English dictionary.

Downgrading Hunspell and logging out and back in fixed the problem.


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

0.20140811.1-8.fc27 

How reproducible:

Install the latest Hunspell and then attempt to write words. Notice that it underscores most of the words. For example, the word "shampoo" is underscored and it recommends "trampoline".

Comment 1 Ryan Farmer 2017-09-23 18:39:03 UTC
It just occurred to me that I filed this bug on hunspell and not hunspell-en, which is the dictionary that was updated that caused the problem.

The same src.rpm rebuilt on an earlier version of fedora works fine, so something went wrong there in >= fc27 on rebuild
