Hi Wolfgang,
How did you install LyX? Custom compile? If so, CMake or Autotools?
I compiled LyX 2.3.0 from source https://www.lyx.org/Download/
and used after make src/lyx to try it out. Have not yet made make
install.
If
you used a pre-compiled binary, was it from your distro's repo or from
e.g., a PPA? What Linux distribution do you use? What version of LyX
did
you install?
Does spellchecking in any language work?
no
What do you have in Tools >
Preferences > Paths > Hunspell dictionaries?
nothing yet
Where do I keep the hunspell files (English, German) under linux?
in .lyx?
It wasn't clear to me from the User guide >
Do any of the following help or is this a freshly new issue?

Best,

Thanks for reply, Scott, and the reminders of earlier mails.
I had difficulties with installing debian stretch anew and switched
to linux-mint for the time being. Checking for build-dep lyx I got
we$ sudo apt-get build-dep lyx
[sudo] password for wolfgang:
Reading package lists... Done
E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
There is apparently only one line in the sources list, and this is
commented out:
#deb cdrom:[Linux Mint 18.3 _Sylvia_ - Release amd64 20171127]/
xenial contrib main non-free
I got the usual official-package-repositories.list

universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted
universe multiverse
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ trusty partner
and tried build-dep lyx again but got
Unable to locate package build-dep
I am new to linux mint and have to find out how to proceed.
Thanks again
Wolfgang
just checked, but build-dep lyx is not found by synaptic and checking
for build-dep gives:
W: Target Translations (multiverse/i18n/Translation-en) is configured
multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:3 and
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/official-package-repositories.list:3
What to do?
Wolfgang
