Comment 1 Michael Stahl 2023-07-23 14:02:38 UTC

just had a quick look at this, and it's very unclear what to do about it.

the "hunspell-de" dictionary requires either "ispell -e" or "aspell expand" to generate intermediate files:
 hunspell-capmain-plus_de_AT.tmp.unfiltered-list-expanded.tmp
 hunspell-capmain-plus_de_CH.tmp.unfiltered-list-expanded.tmp
 hunspell-capmain-plus_de_DE.tmp.unfiltered-list-expanded.tmp

i'm unable to find a similar feature in "hunspell", "enchant", or "enchant-2" documentation.

Comment 2 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 07:15:06 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.

Comment 3 Sandro Mani 2024-02-24 11:47:03 UTC

I've migrated hunspell-de to the libreoffice git dicts.
