I have the same problem with the german spell checking in openoffice. myspell-de-de was not installed, but hunspell-de-de and language- support-writing-de was.
installing myspell-de-de removed hunspell-de-de and language-support- writing-de, but the spelling correction didn't work with that either. Manually installing the german spell checker from http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/dict-de fixt it for me, but it would be better if it would work out of the box. ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- openoffice word correction gone https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89844 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
