(writing is not possible). I did reconfigure. enchant is also installed.
I am using Kubuntu and Lyx 2.1.3

What do you have under Tools > Preferences > Paths > Hunspell?

In my opinion we should automatically fill that in (e.g. LyX should
try to find the Hunspell libraries).

I think this is another topic.

If hunspell is not enabled in settings->spellchecker LyX is compiled
without it. The location of the dictionaries doesn't matter, IMO.

Thanks to all three of you. I am answering to the three messages.
The paths allow to search for the Thesaurus, but the Hunspell search box is greyed out and I can'write into it.
