If you force using --nodeps then it appears that you used rpm to
install.  Do not know for sure that rpm works.  Yast1 does work and
calls up SuSEconfig.  I would recommend quitting evolution, killev etc.,
removing all the spell packages and then install pspell, aspell and
gnomespell in the sequence and manner that I had described earlier. 
Restart X, and set html viewer -> miscellaneous to "en".  This exact
method is what I found that works.

aspell-en-gb does not work.  Or at least did not as of November.
