 In addition, you will need the libraries and developement files from Qt, which are
 available from the depository of your Linux distribution or from www.qt.io.
 
+You will also need the spellcheck package for Qt (libqtspell-qt5-dev) which may be available
+from the package manager of your distribution. Alternatively it can be obtained from
+GitHub ("https://github.com/Qt-Widgets/qtspell-spelling-checker").

+Since the spellcheck code requires the enchant spell-checking library, that will have to be
+installed as well. This should be available through the package manager as well.

 If you are using QtCreator, load the project file jane.pro which is available in the source
