Title:
English Dictionary for Libreoffice in LMDE not installed
Status in The Linux Mint Distribution:
New
Status in “libreoffice-dictionaries” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have installed the LMDE release one 64 bit edition with all the
updating. Openoffice was removed and Libreoffice was installed per the
update. I couldn't get it to check spelling until I noticed that the
English language dictionary extension wasn't installed in the default.
This makes spell check broken in the default install. A normal user
might not know this as it "looks" like the English dictionary is
installed unless you know to look for the blue check with the ABC next
to it. A user who is used to having this set up normally could easily
miss this and be stuck with a broken spell checker in the flagship
office suite or worse, switch away from this excellent Debian-based
distribution. In installing Ooo on Windows and using it in numerous
other Linux flavors, the dictionary is automatically included.
I propose that the English dictionary be included as a part of the
default installation to ease user adoption.
