Re: [Aspell-user] Text::Aspell install problem, OS X

[apv]

You rock. You gave me the clue to fix it. I had bad aspell libraries in 
the /usr/local path from my bad tries at compiling it myself. I removed 
them, and the Fink installed /sw paths kicked in and everything went 
perfectly with make and my test perl script is running right.

Thank you! At least one set of web pages out there in the world will 
now have better spelling b/c of your help.
