[gentoo-user] Kmail composer does not respect langauage selection

[Alan McKinnon <alan.mckinnon@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I'm not sure if this is a real bug or just a stupid config error. I suspect 
the latter.

kmail-4.2.0 displays mail using the correct language dictionary - English 
(South Africa). However, the composer insists on using Afrikaans. If I 
select Settings -> SpellChecker and set the default drop-down to English all 
is well, but it reverts with the next new mail. 

I can find no language selection in kmail -> Settings -> Composer, my 
country|region is set to South Africa in systemsettings, the only Languages 
that systemsettings offers as choices are British and US English.

I have two Afrikaans dictionaries installed for occasional use:
app-dicts/aspell-af
app-dicts/myspell-af

My LINGUAS="en en_GB en_US en_ZA"
aspell is built with USE="-linguas_af"
