Hi Bob, thanks for your answer, but nope, debianutils didn't help. Was it possibly a mistake to cleanly remove the previous version, I think it was 1.03? Or have I overseen some files? Especially files in home as well as the install dir have been removed. Installation of 1.1.0 ran into a configuration dlg offering pre-linking of files which I answered with "No". dpkg-reconfigure now is not able to invoke this dialog again, as obviously the post inst script is not able to work some dictionary files.
So, I will be keeping on searching for reasons...
