The iso-codes issue got resolved with
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gedit/commit/0b3c018d

The snap doesn't include dictionnaries though...

Title:
  [snap] Spellchecking appears to be not working

Status in gedit package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Possibly related console output:

  ```
  (gedit:16993): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 22:40:02.951: Error creating IO channel 
for /proc/self/mountinfo: Permission denied (g-file-error-quark, 2)

directory
  ```

  The check spelling window spills "Error: Spell checker error: no
  language set. It’s maybe because no dictionaries are installed."

  In the poedit snap that uses GtkSpell and Enchant to implement the 
spellchecking we patched the iso-codes prefix and packs all the spellchecking 
dictionaries to solve the issue:
  https://github.com/vslavik/poedit/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml

  Also, I've packaged a Hunspell content snap that provides the dictionaries:
