So, language-selector now has a workaround, which I think is more than enough to have this issue not affect anyone anymore.
Now, concerning lo-dicts, I think the best way forward is instead have hunspell-gl-es stop existing. This is feasible only if the maintainer agrees with me, otherwise dropping the binary from lo-dicts (or making it transitive) is just cool. For that, there is nothing that can be done in xenial, so marking that invalid; in yakkety I'd really prefer if the package could stay in sync, so moving back to confirmed, and adding a debian task. ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #824178 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=824178 ** Also affects: libreoffice-dictionaries (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=824178 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: libreoffice-dictionaries (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: In Progress => Invalid ** Changed in: libreoffice-dictionaries (Ubuntu Xenial) Assignee: Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj) => (unassigned) ** Changed in: libreoffice-dictionaries (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1578821 Title: I'm not able to install galician language in Ubuntu 16.04 Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libreoffice-dictionaries package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in language-selector source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in libreoffice-dictionaries source package in Xenial: Invalid Status in libreoffice-dictionaries package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: [Impact] Installing the Galician language via Language Support fails. The reason is that there is currently two hunspell spellchecking packages in the archive: * hunspell-gl-es, provided by the hunspell-gl-es source package * hunspell-gl, provided by the libreoffice-dictionaries source package Even if hunspell-gl-es conflicts to hunspell-gl, having both of them available in the archive is not compatible with the way the writing aids is pulled via Language Selector. The proposed upload in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/lo-dicts-symlinks drops the hunspell-gl binary from libreoffice-dictionaries. [Test Case] * Open Language Support * Try to install Galician [Regression Potential] Low. [Original description] Hi I just installed Ubuntu 16.04. So as I try to install galician language I get this notification: Transaction failed: Package dependencies cannot be resolved The following packages have unmet dependencies: hunspell-gl-es: Then nothing happens.
