Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

In intrepid, when using 2 dictionaries in evolution (In my case Spanish and English) every work is marked as wrong except the once which are correct in the 2 languages. In the hardy version of it it was only highlighted if the word was in none of the dictionaries.
