Evolution 2.23 doesn't use gnome-spell anymore[0]. It uses a wrapper for
Enchant[1] for all spell-checking needs. So once evolution 2.23 is
uploaded, gnome-spell can be removed from the archive.
Still, it would be nice to have gnome-spell use enchant for Lenny, has
anyone had a chance to review the patch yet?
