https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gedit/commit/0b3c018d

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:
