2.6.7 (February 8, 2024)
------------------------
This version fixes an error introduced in the previous version that caused the Hunspell provider to fail on startup. Apologies!
2.6.6 (February 4, 2024)
------------------------
This version fixes the implementation and documentation of system paths for
configuration files (enchant.ordering). Since version 2.6.4, the wrong path
was searched for pkgdatadir: not, for example /usr/share/enchant-2, as
documented, but the old path /usr/share/enchant. The enchant(5) man page
referred to “DATADIR” rather than the actual configured path. The sysconfdir
location, typically /etc, was not documented.
Hunspell users should note that, contrary to the NEWS entry for 2.6.5, the
DICPATH environment variable cannot be used to specify the location of
hunspell dictionaries to Enchant. That is because it only works with the
hunspell program (which Enchant does not use), not the hunspell library.
Additional debug logging has been added for developers trying to diagnose
problems with configuration files and providers, which can be enabled at
run-time by setting the environment variable G_MESSAGES_DEBUG to
‘libenchant’.
