This bug is open (again?).
I've installed using the desktop-(live)-cd Feisty - Herd 4
I've selected Dutch localisation. It did install English dictionaries, which is
fine.
But it didn't install Dutch dictionaries.
This means spell checking in both Firefox and OpenOffice is not offering Dutch.
Nor is OpenOffice informing me of this: it just pretends I spelled everything
correct, even if its garbage.
The installer should (offer to?) download and install these packages by
default.
Interestingly, if I add a language using the gnome-language-thingie it does add
dictionaries for that language. However, i had to manually do:
sudo aptitude install myspell-nl
To get dutch dictionaries. There was no other way. Perhaps if I removed
dutch localisation and added it again. But both options are not
satisfactory: an average user would not figure that out.
** Changed in: myspell (Ubuntu)
Status: Fix Released => Unconfirmed

Proper myspell dictionary should be installed at installation time
