Description Kruno 2016-04-10 19:39:40 UTC
Misspell something in document, go Tools → Options → LibreOffice Writer → General and change measurement unit from whatever to whatever and spell checking will die and only way to get it working is by restarting LO.

Sometimes happen when switching UI language.

LO 5.1.2, on Debian Jessie.

Same behavior in 5.2.7.

Can't test with older or newer version at the moment but will in future.

Restarting of LO isnt required, simply re-enable Tools > Automatic Spell Checking.
