Thy debugging that interactively. Maybe you are building without dictionaries, and the test misses a required check to skip it?
Thanks for the tip. The test was indeed trying to open a dialog that didn't exist since I didn't have dictionaries installed, and I also hadn't compiled libreoffice with dictionaries.
Adding `--with-myspell-dicts` to my 'autogen.input' helped the test case pass. Do you think this addresses the root of the issue, or should anything else be considered, like installing system-wide dictionaries? Regards, Jim Chen
