That shows that aspell is not in your PATH environment variable (no
/usr/local/bin in the above list).

Maybe are you trying to compile aspell/aspell's dictionary as root? In my
system, root account does not have /usr/local/bin in its $PATH for security
reasons (I need to "source/etc/profile" to do this, but that depends on your
system).
