Can't add words to dictionaries

[Dave Morley]

Binary package hint: empathy

You can't add words to the dictionary in empathy in any obvious manner.

This is in Empathy 0.21.5.2 in hardy 64bit.

[Laurent Bigonville (bigon)]

could you retry with the last version (2.23.6)?

[Duncan Hawthorne (duncan.hawthorne)]

in 2.23.90 there is no option for add to dictionary in the right click menu nor in the "Spell checker" dialog. pidgin for example does have this useful option

[Dereck Wonnacott (dereck)]

Indeed 2.23.90 has no option to add to the dictionary.

[Vyrianna Lycrone (lycorne)]

It may be fixed for some, but I still have no idea where to add words to the dictionary.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

Is it not fixed in Ubuntu-11.04 could anyone test? or Even better if anyone could try it in Oneiric. (I am currently away from Oneirc or 11.04 using 10.10)

[Vyrianna Lycrone (lycorne)]

I am running on 11.04 and it does now work for me. I also see that often their suggestions and appear to be in GB English rather than US English. I haven't found where to change that, either.

[Vyrianna Lycrone (lycorne)]

Sorry, I should have proof read that better, it does NOT work for me in 11.04.
