[Bug 213621] New: Spell checking in Evolution is broken.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=213621 Summary: Spell checking in Evolution is broken. Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: thoenig@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: jhargadon@novell.com Spell checking in Evolution is broken. Evolution requires libgnome-spell-component-0.3.so for spell checking; this library is not being installed by default. Looking at the changelog for gnome-spell2 there was recently a change [1] which moved the library to gnome-spell2-devel. This is the only content of the -devel pacakge; I am not aware for the reason of the split. As Evolution should not require a devel package its probably the best to revert that change if there is no strong reason for the split.

I am not aware for the reason of the split.
The split has been done because of a request in bug 210224 which is suspected to be invalid. The request was about avoiding -devel dependencies in runtime packages, which is legitimate, but gnome-spell2 neither had any -devel dependencies before the split nor does it include any development files.
As Evolution should not require a devel package its probably the best to revert that change if there is no strong reason for the split.
Yes, the split of gnome-spell2 should be reverted ASAP - that's why bug 210224 is currently in NEEDINFO. Btw. I'm not too happy with the split of gnome-doc-utils either (It was actually my proposal because it is required by yelp and requires libxml2-devel, so that in the end yelp pulled in libxml2-devel...), I think that the gnome-doc-utils -> libxml2-devel dependency is wrong in the first place. (It has been added because of a "Requires: libxml-2.0" line in a .pc file, but I can't convince myself that this line is correctly there.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I have removed the dependency of this bug on bug 210224, so this bug can be closed (it's fixed, the unnecessary -devel split is gone and the spellchecker in Evolution should be fine again now). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
