Abiword: dictionary not found


Hi,

I've been puzzling on this one for months and can't seem to get it right.
In Abiword I cannot use the dutch dictionary, each time the message appears that the dutch dictionary can't be found.
It is possible to use the US-dictionary (which is bundled with Abiword) so the spellchecker works.
I've been chasing the web for a solution, but I haven't found it yet. Here on LQ.org is the matter raised several times, but a solution is not found (apart from the stuff that is written on the ispell-site (linked through from the Abiword site).
So I created a nederlands.hash and copied it to /usr/lib/ispell/ and /usr/share/AbiSuite-2.2/dictionary/

Unfortunately it just won't work that way and apparently not only here ).


Anyone who does know the solution?
I'd be very grateful.

Finally solved it.
I installed the Abiword package from Slacky-eu + all dependencies (11 if I'm not mistaken...).
Made a symlink from /usr/lib/libgucharmap.so.4.0.3 to /usr/lib/libgucharmap.so.6 and everything is hunky dory.
