However, it doesn't seem to be very popular yet; Debian has packages for sid (unstable) and stretch (testing) only, Ubuntu even not for yakkety. So I *think* those will rely on GtkSpell for the time being. Apart from the fact that Debian/Ubuntu still ship with Balsa 2.4.12... :-(Gentoo has gspell 0.1.2 as stable and 0.2.2, 0.2.3, and 1.0.2 as testing versions, so I'll try to find time to give it a test.
The implementation is based on Gspell version 1.0.2 API documentation, and that's the only version I've tested it with. I don't know when the API stabilized, so you may have issues with the earlier versions. Peter
