Package: lyx
Version: 1.3.4-2
Severity: normal
When I run the spell checker, I get a box that says:
The spell-checker has failed
Can't open /usr/lib/ispell/english.hash
However, running ispell foo.txt from the command line works fine.
The referenced file doesn't exist, but I don't know why LyX is
complaining:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/ispell
