I'm using ooo3 on opensuse 11.0

The Thesaurus item in Tools-Language menu is greyed out, so cannot be used.

I've checked in Tools-Options-Language_Settings-Writing_aids-Openoffice_Thesaurus - edit, and there is no thesaurus listed when the language is set to British or Canadian English, only when set to American English, which then also changes the spellchecker, which I do not want to do.

I've checked in the extensions repository, but there is no British English thesaurus listed there either.

Is it not possible to use a thesaurus for British English?

I normally have my OpenOffice.org set to Canadian English. I opened Write to check this, and a message popped up saying that there was an update available if I wished to accept it.

The update was for Canadian and UK dictionaries, including the thesaurus. I accepted the update. The Canadian thesaurus and UK thesaurus work fine.

Just checked again and another update is available for the French dictionary, including the thesaurus. I accepted that also.

But I on checking the extension web page I find the Canadian dictionary (with thesaurus) but not the UK dictionary.

Most odd.
