I like this option because it would eliminate the need to wait to find out if Chromium can use the files before deciding where to put them. On a separate note, I am in the process of filing upstream bug reports with Google as recommended by Qt. Once I get those filed I will place links to them in the Qt bug reports. I don’t think we need to wait for these bugs to be fixed before adding packages to Debian as they only affect three languages, but if the .bdic files are going to be generated automatically we need some mechanism to specify that they shouldn’t attempt to be generated for these three languages until the bugs are fixed. Alternatively, we could patch the files so that the errors are avoided. In the case Aragonese with tabs in the .aff, we could change them all to be spaces. I can find no Hunspell file spec that says either tabs or spaces are required, and I am assuming that Hunspell itself doesn’t have problems with tabs because there are no nasty bugs filed against the current Aragonese Debian package, but it should also work fine with spaces as that is what all the other Hunspell packages appear to use. The errors in the other two files could be fixed by removing one line from ar.aff and 31 lines from gl_ES.dic. That makes them slightly less correct, but most people using the .bidc would probably not notice. If we go this route we need to make sure we are only editing temporary files used to generate the .bdic as those using the standard Hunspell system should not end up with an inferior experience just to accommodate a custom binary format. -- Soren Stoutner so...@stoutner.com
