Maybe the mozilla-spellchecker RPMs %post should link to all the
installed dicts, only problem is dicts installed post spellchecker. So
maybe their post should check for existence of mozilla-spellchecker (or
/usr/lib/mozilla/components/myspell), and  if so put links in.

Apparently lang and location get picked up if they are for example
en-GB.dic instead of en_GB.dic. If they didn't do this, we could just
link /usr/lib/mozilla/components/myspell to /usr/lib/myspell (although
that might still be the best option).

And maybe the myspell-<lang> packages need to have a virtual provides
for "myspell-dict" or something (like the other dicts), and anything
requiring a dict can require that, so the user gets a choice.

But I see no point in repackaging the myspell dicts for mozilla.

While we're talking about dictionaries, Gwenole, can the ooffice wrapper
link all dictionaries installed into the users dictionaries? Some people
may use multi-lingual documents, and there is nothing wrong with a user
having more dicts in his .openoffice than he uses, there is a ui for
choosing them anyway.
