Luke, far be it from me to accuse you of jumping to conclusions, but the problem he reported is that spell checking doesn't work, not that it's in the wrong language. Despite your beliefs to the contrary, Debian still has the patch to register the dictionary as your locale has reduced the bug reports pertaining to spell checking language (of which there were a handful before the patch) to zero (after the patch). The issue here is probably along the lines of attempting to load a da_DK dictionary fails to find a da dictionary - if so the patch can be fixed accordingly. I am e-mailing him to ask for debug output and try LANG=da to confirm this for us. Regards, Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
