Problem: cannot get LOffice to use a dictionary for spellcheck etc.

Tried HELP;
Tools - Options - Language Settings - Writing Aids.

tick all the boxes, close window, selected dictionary disappears
never to be used.

Online help is terrible ( says for ver7.5, if that makes a diff )

Used synaptic to reinstall modules commonbase and writer without
effect.
Should never have installed the update offered recently. DOH!

Anybody able to point me in the right direction??

LO is pretty chaotic, I never understood that spell check enigma but
installing "hunspell" dictionaries ( or something ) works for me.

When I use the Thunderbird spell checker, things work as expected.

When I use the LibreOffice one, it's all sorts of crazy. Sure,
it highlights things, but it does not have the correct entries
in the dictionary for anything. I couldn't really be sure what
it thought it was doing. I also can't seem to get it to correct
something twice.

When I look in Synaptic, the dictionaries seem to be installed.
