I've just tried to downgrade sylpheed and sylpheed-i18n to version
3.7.0-7, but this didn't help.

To be honest, I was skeptical, since the new Debian revision (3.7.0-8)
migrated to testing a long ago (during last summer) and I upgraded at
that time.
I had not experienced this issue until very recently: that's why I
tried to downgrade libaspell15. It was the most obvious suspect.
But nothing seems to help...  :-(

Thanks to you, for any help you may provide.

Please take into account that I am experiencing the same exact issue
with claws-mail (which is known to be a fork of sylpheed, although the
two code bases have probably diverged significantly in so much time...)
and with libreoffice-writer (which really surprised me, as I thought it
was not even using the same spell checker library: libhunspell-1.7-0,
rather than libaspell15...).

There's something wrong with some recent upgrade on my Debian testing
boxes, but I really cannot understand where.

Above all, I am confused by the test with aspell (the command-line
program), which still seems to work perfectly.

Any idea?



P.S.: I am removing the moreinfo tag, since I think I replied to your
request for additional information, but, of course, feel free to re-add
the tag, in case you need some other reply from me.
