Sorry. Forgot a bit of my own history on this process. I instlled the
aspell-en from 9.2 tree of SuSE as 9.3 no longer has it.

As you can see their are aspell-en-debug info but no aspell-en package.
That is why I tried the 9.2 version, but as you alluded to this may not
work. Is their anyone who knows where I can find an aspell-en package or
source to compile which will work? I have googled around and tried to
find source package but no luck.
