Pyenchant cannot find dictionary file on Mac OS X

I'm having trouble installing pyenchant on a MacbookPro running Lion. I used homebrew and pip to set enchantment and peach.

homebrew install enchant

pip install pyenchant

I also downloaded the English dictionary to the following folder:

/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.3/lib/python2.7/site-packages/enchant/share/enchant/myspell

-rw-r--r--  1 mycomputer  admin      75 Jun  6 13:34 README.txt
-rw-rw-rw-@ 1 mycomputer  staff    1017 May  4  2007 README_en_US.txt
drwx------@ 2 mycomputer  staff      68 Jun  6 13:38 en_US
-rw-rw-rw-@ 1 mycomputer  staff    3045 May  4  2007 en_US.aff
-rw-rw-rw-@ 1 mycomputer  staff  696131 May  4  2007 en_US.dic

However, when I try to use enchant, I get the following error.

>>> import enchant
>>> d = enchant.Dict('en_US')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.3/lib/python2.7/site-packages/enchant/__init__.py", line 502, in __init__
    self._switch_this(broker._request_dict_data(tag),broker)
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.3/lib/python2.7/site-packages/enchant/__init__.py", line 264, in _request_dict_data
    self._raise_error(eStr % (tag,),DictNotFoundError)
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.3/lib/python2.7/site-packages/enchant/__init__.py", line 218, in _raise_error
    raise eclass(default)
enchant.errors.DictNotFoundError: Dictionary for language 'en_US' could not be found

I assume that I do not have dictionary files installed in the correct folder, but I do not know where else to install them.

Thank.

Enchant is "lazy" and needs support from aspell.

So what you need to do:

brew remove aspell
brew install aspell --lang=en

en dicts , dicts.
