Bug ID: 156194
Summary: When no locale-specific thesaurus is available,
fallback to a language-only one
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer

Some languages have multiple local variants, e.g. en-US, en-UK, en-ZA etc. In
fact, they may have dozens more which don't have any specific definitions. And
if such a locale is used in LO, we don't get to use various mechanisms which
are currently locale-specific with no language-level fallback. One of these is
the Thesaurus.
A recent example has been en-IL: bug 156101. That one was solved by manually
adding it as one of the locales covered by en-US.
I suggest that, as a general measure, there will be a fallback to a
language-level default thesaurus/dictionary file/fileset, so that the same
procedure need not be repeated whenever one uses an uncommon locale we have not
specifically catered to.
