Problem:
The PPA version 1.3.2-6ubuntu2.1~ppa4 improves the situation slightly, but it's not sufficient to prevent these crashes. At the same time we have found that hunspell 1.3.3-3 from the vivid repository can be installed in trusty without any dependency complaints, and doing so fixes the issue completely.

So would uploading hunspell 1.3.3-3 to trusty as an SRU, in order to fix
this bug, be an acceptable option?

Title:
  LibreOffice crashes when interacting with Danish and Swedish thesauri

Status in hunspell package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  When running in Danish or Swedish, and when both the hunspell
  dictionary and the thesaurus are installed, LibreOffice crashes when
  right-clicking highlighted text. The issue has been fixed in hunspell
  1.3.3:

  https://github.com/hunspell/hunspell/commit/d660d4b1b4ecb341fe7d9966e5e593ae11396e2d

  The proposed upload cherry picks that commit for hunspell in trusty.

  [Test Case]

  The issue seems not to be reproducable on all distros. Users of
  Xubuntu and Linux Mint with 32 bits architecture have reported the
  issue, and when present, it's obvious from the description above how
  to reproduce the bug.

  [Regression Potential]

  Since the code has been present in hunspell 1.3.3 for quite a while,
  the regression risk should be low.
