installation problem - libpspell

[rudolphi <rudolphi netmon ch>]

hi out there,

i try to install the newest version of balsa 1.1.7 on my debian box
(woody). i installed - so i believe - all the necessary libs. but every
time i try to install balsa, i get back the following message:

checking for new_pspell_manager in -lpspell... no
configure: error: *** libpspell not found.  Pleas check
http://www.balsa.net for information on the required files.

actually, i do have installed libpspell. so what am i doing wrong?

(sorry, i AM a newby... and the problem may be very simple... but ANY help
is welcome)

thanks
