With 1.6.1 installed I get what appears to be the same crash. I'm using spell-checker=internal, to avoid rebuilding gspell; the issue seems to be that enchant lists no available dictionaries, and Balsa is unprepared for handling that!

So the immediate fix is to have Balsa gracefully disable spell-checking when no dictionaries can be found--that should be a straightforward patch. Longer term, we need to find out why 1.6.1 lists no dictionaries when 1.6.0 lists several.

Best,

Peter
