Description Alexander Ploumistos 2022-05-16 19:56:22 UTC

Hello,

It seems that the recent Change[1] about the relocation of the hunspell dictionary files from /usr/share/myspell/ to /usr/share/hunspell/ broke spell-checking for Firefox.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2041930#c10 for some more details.
