I did all the above and now the following installed but unfortunately
the spell checking option is still greyed out and the highlighting of
miss-spelled words doesn't occur.  

Am I still being burnt by the missing libltdl file?

Do you have any more ideas?

ispell-3.1.20-297
gnome-spell-0.4-ximian.1
pspell-0.12.2-ximian.4
aspell-0.33.7.1-ximian.3
spellc-19960917-182

Kind regards,

Jim George
