I guess you're using the LyX-2.0.0alpha1.dmg I build on Snow Leopard. You're right, no aspell support :( I didn't read carefully enough this part of configure output: checking aspell.h usability... yes checking aspell.h presence... yes checking for aspell.h... yes checking for new_aspell_config in -laspell... no checking whether to use aspell... no So I looked for the reason and found that configure detected the headers of aspell but did not find the library. When trying to improve the situation I learned that my "universal" aspell library from macports is like that: % file /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64 /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386 So in fact I cannot build a ppc version of LyX with aspell now. I'll see what I can do... Stephan
