I'll say again.

prt-get edit pidgin

... remove --disable-aspell

prt-get depinst aspell

prt-get update -fr pidgin

This is not hard guys. CRUX is not meant to "hand hold"

you through every step of the process :) If you wanted a

distro that does that there's Ubuntu, Arch, etc, etc :)

IHMO Ports have always been (unwritten rule?) the

bare minimum for the functionality the software

represents.

pidgin port has --disable-aspell so it wont work without modifying  this port

Can't you just install aspell/ispell

and rebuild pidgin like I've done so many

times?

No need to haul in another dependency :)

Hi,

I would like to know if any contrib/pidgin users would like to have aspell support. It would add aspell and friends to the list of dependencies.

I've manually removed that --disable-aspell line and recompiled. it be nice if the code was patched to be enabled if found or disabled if aspell was not found.
