Description:

In the most recent version of Claws Mail package (3.16.0-2) spell checking functionality is missing. There's no “Spell checking” panel inside “Compose” preferences and there are no spell checking tools or options available during mail composition.

I checked the claws-mail binary from the official Arch package and it appears it is not linked to enchant library at all. I also tried to build the package myself and I noticed that even though enchant is included in ./configure parameters (--enable-enchant) it is not found during ./configure execution and Makefiles end up missing it completely.

Additional info:
* package version(s): 3.16.0-2
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:

Open official Claws Mail application and look into Configuration → Preferences → Compose section.

Create a new mail. There are no settings or tools for the spell checking available.

In configure.ac the check is
PKG_CHECK_MODULES(ENCHANT, enchant >= 1.4.0
the enchant pkg-config is enchant-2
