Hi there !
Just installed claws-mail in the new laptop. It works great except that the dependency enchant-1-backends is missing, so the spell checker is not functional (except for Finnish because enchant-1-backend-voikko is installed)
Since claws-mail package is compiled against libenchant-1 and provides the spell checker functionality, we should include enchant-1-backends package as a dependency for the main claws-mail package.

Forum participants are mostly just ordinary users. If you are looking for something to be changed, then I suggest you file a bug report.
openSUSE:Submitting bug reports
There was an earlier similar Forum thread about Claws mail and the Enchant spell-checker but I don’t remember off the top of my head how that was resolved. Recommend you search for that before submitting a bug report to verify it’s not simply a configuration or User issue.
If you do submit a bug report, you might also verify the other “optional” features are installed, it’s general practice unless there is a specific reason to include all optional features. From the Claws Mail FAQ, the following are “optional” when compiled
**compface
**for X-Face support
**GnuPG 1.2.1 or later and GPGME 0.4.5 or later
**for GnuPG support (see How do I enable GPG support in Claws Mail?)
**GnuTLS 2.2 or later
**for SSL/TLS support
**libEtPan! 0.57 or later
**for IMAP4 support and NNTP support
**OpenLDAP 2.0.7 or later
**for LDAP support
**Enchant (and dictionaries)
**for spell-checker support
**J-Pilot
**for J-Pilot support
**D-Bus
**for interprocess communication support
**
Network Manager
**for support for detection of network connection change

Hi
It needs to move to enchant2, give me a few days and will look at fixing…
Thanks for the reply !
That was probably me, because an earlier version was compiled without enchant support .
