Problems with ASpell and Bluefish Installation


I am trying to install BlueFish HTML Editor and when I run configure it suggests that I install libaspell

checking for aspell.h... no
libaspell not found please install libaspell-dev or similar

I have aspell already installed

[root@sforsgren-linux-01 bluefish-0.9]# rpm -qa | grep aspell*
aspell-da-1.4.22-7
aspell-no-0.3-6
aspell-en-gb-0.33.7.1-21
aspell-sv-1.3.8-4
aspell-en-ca-0.33.7.1-21
aspell-it-0.1-16
aspell-pt_BR-2.4-12
aspell-de-0.1.1-17
aspell-fr-0.6-8
aspell-pt-0.1-12
aspell-devel-0.33.7.1-21
aspell-0.33.7.1-21
aspell-es-0.2-13
aspell-ca-0.1-18
aspell-nl-0.1-17

However, if I search my file system, I do not find the aspell.h file that the BlueFish install seems to want.

What am I doing wrong? I thought that the .h file would come with aspell-devel-0.33.7.1-21 above.

Thanks!

Do you have the libaspell and libaspell-devel packages installed? Its not asking for the aspell package. It wants libaspell.

When I tried to install libaspell, I got:

[root@sforsgren-linux-01 root]# rpm -i libaspell-0.33*
warning: libaspell-0.33.7.1-alt1.i586.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID eac91ca0
file /usr/lib/libaspell.so.10.1.1 from install of libaspell-0.33.7.1-alt1 conflicts with file from package aspell-0.33.7.1-21
file /usr/lib/libpspell_aspell.so.2.0.1 from install of libaspell-0.33.7.1-alt1 conflicts with file from package aspell-0.33.7.1-21

So I did a --force (was that an ok thing to do?) Same with the devel rpm.

After both rpms:

libaspell-0.33.7.1-alt1.i586.rpm
libaspell-devel-0.33.7.1-alt1.i586.rpm

are installed, I still don't have an aspell.h file anywhere on my machine.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
