[RESOLVED] LibreOffice spell check does not work

I was working on LibreOffice Writer this morning when I noticed it was not checking the spelling. All of the settings and dictionaries appear to be installed and set correctly, yet the spell check does not work (even when I run the Spelling & Grammar check by pressing F7). I've never had this issue on any Debian-based install before, so I'm wondering if it's a BL-specific issue.

UPDATE: Never mind, it turned out there was a missing package (myspell-en-us).

I hit that one a year or so ago, but had forgotten what the fix was - thanks for posting!
