The proposed uploads in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/lo-dicts-symlinks renames such files, and also adds symlinks in some cases for locales with other country codes but the 'main' locale for a language. [Test Case] Example: * Install the Swedish language via Language Support * Start libreoffice with a Swedish locale LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.UTF-8 libreoffice --writer * Find that hyphenation is not available [Regression Potential] There is a drawback with this fix: For e.g. Spanish and Arabic users the symlinks will add items in the spellcheck menus of other applications but LibreOffice, where it would have worked without those symlinks. OTOH, this is the way it has been handled in Ubuntu up to 15.10, so the fix basically restores the previous behavior. Other than that, the regression risk is low. This is only about files (including symlinks) in the /usr/share/{hunspell,hyphen,mythes} directories with limited affect on the system.
