In fact, the situation appears to be more complicated, and points to a race condition of some sort.
Having fixed the problem, I thought I'd try a theory about what causes it. So, I removed the dictionary and restarted Firefox. However, my spelling language was still correctly set to en-GB. Further, I can no longer reproduce the problem in a fresh profile, which of course does not have the dictionary installed. I should stress that the only thing I changed in any of this was my Firefox profile; I did not add, remove or otherwise alter any Ubuntu package. Hence, I really can't see what could have fixed the problem (since it has gone from being reproducible with a fresh profile to not being reproducible with a fresh profile), and I wonder whether there may be a race condition; not least, because the code that scans for dictionaries runs asynchronously. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1026869 Title: Firefox accepts dictionaries and spell check entries from every which spell check backend, leaving problems with defaults and the language selector enables this behavior To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/1026869/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
