Besides the question how to install hunspell I have a remark here. Aspell in general is unable to remove words from the personal word list. That's why I've implemented the personal word list as a feature of LyX. The new personal word lists of LyX 2.0 are common to all backends. Nevertheless the installed Aspell may have its own PWL. Since these are "write-only" they are used like system dictionaries. However, if you add a word to your personal dictionary in LyX 2.0, you'll see them both is hunspell and Aspell. OTOH, you won't see them in other tools using Aspell. Stephan
