I'm not sure if this applies to Arch. it might be just an issue with the binary provided in the repository for PCLinuxOS... Where I just did an apt-get upgrade a few days ago and wound up with LyX 2.0.0 And had some issues with the spellchecker and/or the preference settings for it. Most of which would not be an issue if I didn't sometimes have difficulty with using the mouse and/or if I LIKED sidebars. «I don't mind the spellchecker being sidebar style instead of the pop-up because the pop-up used to sometimes hide the context of the word in question.‥ BUT I can't seem to turn off the option to spell check continuously... And there isn't a keyboard shortcut to dismiss the sidebar.» However I did note that while the preferences say it's using aspell, adding a word to the dictionary does NOT put it in ~/.aspell.en.pws which I can edit to remove words I wish I hadn't added... (Thus it seems my PCLinuxOS copy of LyX will forever accept "puleese" as a legitimate alternative spelling for "please" cause I can't un-add it. And also added a hyphenated "name" «literally ‘Avant-garde’» to the dictionary to ensure I spelled it consistently. The Spellchecker on my PCLinuxOS copy of LyX 2.0.0 no longer recognizes that, even after I tried adding it again...
