Public bug reported:
Using the 'standard' install of OOo in Maverick, I wanted to add a UK
thesaurus. Apparently the UK and US ones are merged, so the package
openoffice.org-thesaurus-en-us should install what I'm after. I did
apt-get install openoffice.org-thesaurus-en-us then stopped OOo and started it
and expected to go Tools->Language->Thesaurus to use the thesaurus.
The 'Thesaurus' item in the menu is still greyed out.
It is unclear what to do next in order to actually use the thesaurus.
Also, if this really is also a UK thesaurus, mightn't it be worth naming it
such that it's less obviously wrong for someone after a UK thesaurus?
