What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use a non-English interface (I have German by default)
2. Try disabling the spell checker
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The spell checker doesn't get disabled. On the command line, I get an error
saying
Dictionary for language 'Aus' could not be found
Note that 'Aus' is the German translation of 'None' - which gets recognized
properly
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
svn r456 on Ubuntu Lucid
Please provide any additional information below.
In order to use the spellchecker, the additional package python-enchant needs
to be installed. First, I didn't realize this and started marave without it. It
(naturally) told me that the spell checker was disabled. In any subsequent
attempt to restart marave, it crashed with the following traceback:

Segmentation fault
Apparently this is related to marave writing the default value 'Aus' (='None')
into the config file during the first startup, which isn't recognized later and
leads to a segfault. This should not happen (probably by a try/catch
enchant.DictNotFoundError).
