Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gtkhtml3.14
gtkhtml version 3.14, possibly others (this bug exist for years)
Operating system: Ubuntu 9.04
Spelling suggestion for Greek words is not working in evolution and
possibly other applications because in the file "gtkhtml/htmlengine.c",
function "html_engine_spell_word_is_valid", the following code returns a
gunichar but the result is truncated to gchar.
gchar prev, curr;
prev = html_cursor_get_prev_char (e->cursor);
curr = html_cursor_get_current_char (e->cursor);
This means that the spelling suggestions may stop working for all words
that contain Non-ASCII Characters.
the local variables gchar prev, curr;
must be replaced by gunichar prev, curr;
I have tested this on Ubuntu 9.04 (jaunty) and it seems to work.
I attached a patch for gtkhtml3.14-3.26.0
** Affects: gtkhtml3.14 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
