[Evolution] Spell checking in SuSE

[Ralph Sanford <rsanford telusplanet net>]

If you are using Evo in SuSE 7.2 and are getting tired of Red Carpet
refusing to download the aspell and gnome-spell packages needed to get
spell checking working in Evo try the following:

Use Red Carpet to replace your newer pspell package with pspell
0.12.2-ximian.4 from the SuSE channel of Red Carpet.  Red Carpet still
won't load aspell or gnome-spell but now you are on the way.  Go to
ftp.ximian.com/pub/ximian-gnome/suse-72-i386 and grab the rpm's for
aspell and gnome-spell.  Use Yast1 to install aspell and gnome-spell;
roughly the same as --force with your favourite rpm package except that
it will automatically fire up Suseconfig for you.  

Now spell checking works in Evo (assuming that you have turned spell
checking on in Gnome control centre).  Slick.  Just need to find a way
to get English rather than American spelling.

I have had this set up for several days now and the older version of
pspell does not appear to cause any problems, except that Red Carpet
wants to upgrade to the newer version of pspell.
