could you try to reinstall spell-en?

btw can you give me the install order of the packages?
Comment by Tobias Powalowski (tpowa) - Thursday, 17 February 2005, 14:06 GMT
ok it's the pacman bug with upgrading. please reinstall your spellcheck packages and all should be ok after it.
i updated the wiki, so everyone should care about the problem.

Tried reinstalling spell-en. Didn't help.
I am not sure about the order exactly. I expect it was oo-base then spell-en (oo-en was not upgraded).
I just removed all oo packages and reinstalled in oo-base, oo-en, oo-spell-en order. This works.. so I guess there's nothing actually wrong with the packages.
Should people be warned that his might happen?

no it's a problem with pacman and upgrades, if a file moves to an other package and it's upgraded in wrong order this happens,
packages a provides new file, package b removed file on upgrade
--> file is missing
Solution:
it seems it's not the spellcheck package that needs to be reinstalled, it is the openoffice-base.
updated the wiki so everyone should get the info.
