On Thunderbird 2.0.0.6+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 on Gutsy, there is a related but somewhat different bug -- the "Download More Dictionaries" link in the Preferences window is totally dummy.
Apparently the XPI spellcheckers provided by Mozilla don't work for Thunderbird on Ubuntu, and the procedure to enable spellchecking is to install the myspell packages. If so, please totally remove the "Download More Dictionaries" text in the Preferences window -- why display a totally meaningless text? Also please add this information on using myspell for spellchecking to the Thunderbird help on Ubuntu. -- (Feisty) Can't install further dictionaries with the Thunderbird build-in link https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103003 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
