Lost spell check in Abiword2.0

I have downloaded the new "usr-local-bin" Abiword2.0 using apt and Synaptic, but have lost spell checking. It was working with 1.99.5, which I did not uninstall before installing version2.0. The "ABC" Spell Check icon is greyed out. I still have Aspell in /usr/bin, the GB Aspell dictionaries in /usr/lib/aspell and the normal.awt template is set up for en-GB. I have also downloaded enchant and libwpd. The latter may not have anything to do with Abiword, as I have also downloaded the new Galeon. I have looked on the Abisource web site, but can't find any pointers to what may be wrong. Please James, or anyone else, can you help me? Many thanks Keith
