Those files (symbolic links) with a hyphen are there for a reason. I have no courage to simply remove them. Firefox should deal with them then? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/66015 Title: Duplicate spell checking dictionaries for every entry Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in Mozilla Firefox 3.5 series: Fix Released Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Fix Released Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Fix Released Status in “dictionaries-common” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “firefox-3.0” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “firefox-3.5” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “dictionaries-common” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: If you right click on a Firefox text area, you can select which language to use for spell checking. In this list I see: + en_us + English / Verenigde Staten + en_uk + English / Verenigd Koninkrijk As you can see they both us-en and uk-en show up translated to my language (Dutch) and as an acronym. They seem to behave the same though. Perhaps this is an issue with translated dictionary names, perhaps this is just an issue of having differently named packages installed containing the same dictionaries. I'm not really sure where they get their dictionaries from. I had to install a dutch dictionary using an add-on: it was not installed by default, even though the rest of my desktop was translated to Dutch. But I'll post that as a seperate bug.
