Spell Checker plugin crashes during rapid changing of pages

[norfcran]

Dear All,

I have been experiencing crashes and after little debugging I was able to narrow it down to some trouble with the gtkspell library, which generates the following record in a log:

zim -D produced the following output:

**
gtkspell:ERROR:gtkspell.c:751:gtkspell_new_attach: assertion failed: (spell == NULL)
WARNING: Child quit unexpectedly: 7916

The error may be replicated by having the spell checker plugin activated and switching pages rapidly with shortcuts Alt+PgUP or Alt+PgDn. Possibly the spell checker plugin could take an advantage from having a short timer preventing checking each page during this quick jumps.

Latest release also supports gtkpellcheck library as alternative - maybe that helps ?

thank you for a tip, I have tried the python-gtkspellcheck and removed the python-gtkspell and ZIM no longer crashes.
