I think that the Aspell dictionaries aren't our business. We shouldn't package them with LyX. Uwe can throw them into his installer if he likes (it's his installer after all :)) but LyX itself shouldn't have to look for these dictionaries in a hard-wired location. The current situation is ugly but your suggestion is no better. IMO of course.

I just thought that putting them in the LyX resources directory would be an easy thing. If it's not really easier than making it a configuration setting there is no point in it.

Of course it would be a good idea to give the user the option where to look for dictionaries. A dictionary installer could check the LyX configuration file to know what the default location should be.

Anyway, this won't be in 1.4.0. For now, if you can make the small modification to your shell script so it will work with my new installer script, things should be fine.
