Chinese language UI doesn't work also.
German language only during setup. Setting 'german' in OO Options doesn't work. Only english.
Working on this, shall be in 1.1.0-3.
There are actually 3 i18n problems: 1) UI Language 2) Dictionaries, Hyphenators, and Thesauruses 3) Correct UI Font for languages Well, I've fixed (1), (2) means a load of dictionaries and won't be fixed in 1.1.0-3 but its a priority for 1.1.0-4. (3) is a beast, since we can't just use the system font (Tools->Options->Accessibility->Use System Font), which is simply "Sans", which itself is a fontconfig "meta" font which OOo knows nothing about. So we get to special-case a bunch of langauges.... Sigh.
I guess you've noticed, 1.1.0-4 is here, but still no dictionaries )-:
Yes, no dictionaries for the moment. Its not hard, just a lot of redundant work (plus need to make sure we can redistribute them). I will file an additional bug for the dictionaries, but this bug is now fixed.
Dictionaries/hyph/thes issue # is 108720. This one now closed.
