I am running KWord off of the latest CVS HEAD - and I also am having some 
problems with the spellchecker.  (This is the latest update that fixed the 
aspell problem in ./config - although that didn't work either).

1 - If I try to configure the Spellchecker, I get the "font symbol not found" 
error message (as reported earlier).

2 - If I select a block of text or a single word, the spellchecker runs fine.  
But if try to check the entire document, the spellchecker rushes through each 
and every word in the document, without pausing, until it reaches the end.  
It goes through every word in about fifteen seconds and does NOT stop to 
allow a correction.

Part of the problem has something to do with the the way FC1 deals with KDE 
and Aspell:  The FC1 rpm of aspell installs it in /usr/bin - but the Aspell 
source version installs it in /usr/local.  However, when I installed the 
source version and removed the RPM the entire KDE desktop went ballistic and 
refused to acknowledge that aspell was there (gave me the "unable to start 
Aspell/Ispell" message reported earlier.

When I attempted to install the source version of aspell using prefix=/usr - 
the "make install" crashed with the error message: I am unable to install 
aspell.h in a folder that ends with anything other than /usr/local/lib - even 
though I specified that folder in the ./config script.
