I noticed a few worrying lo-dicts bugs at Debian. Some testing on Ubuntu re <https://bugs.debian.org/824800>:

[Y/n] n Abort. $ Guess that's something we could live with, but <https://bugs.debian.org/824796> and <https://bugs.debian.org/824400> appear to be more tricky. Changing back to "verification-needed" for now. @Mattia, would appreciate your help to consider this SRU once again. Right now I feel there is a need to add a couple of Breaks/Replaces. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #824800 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=824800 ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #824796 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=824796 ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #824400 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=824400 ** Tags removed: verification-done ** Tags added: verification-needed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice-dictionaries in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574745 Title: Missing symlinks to match locales Status in libreoffice-dictionaries package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libreoffice-dictionaries source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in libreoffice-dictionaries package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] Dictionaries like /usr/share/hunspell/es_ANY.aff /usr/share/hunspell/es_ANY.dic and /usr/share/hyphen/hyph_sv.dic are not recognized by LibreOffice, since their names don't include country codes. 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.
