Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1:0.99f7-5.fc15 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Spellcheck the file contating such a word, like "ещё" Actual results: There's an offering to replace it with "еще".

One of the problems here is that there are a pile of Russian dictionaries floating around, and various variants, and all documentation is in Russian which I can't read :-),so a native speaker is needed to recommend the best dictionary to use. What should we use ? Which is the best one currently available ?
Let me guess, the yo variant

Package hunspell-ru-0.99f7-6.fc15: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 15 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing hunspell-ru-0.99f7-6.fc15' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/hunspell-ru-0.99f7-6.fc15 then log in and leave karma (feedback).
feedback suggests that this is a no-go as the other variant makes non yo spelling incorrect, annoying another bunch of people. Is there a combined dictionary, or a solution that makes everyone happy ?
I have wonderful idea: take normal dictionary, jo-dictionary, unmunch them and merge. Then lift affix file from aspell-ru and munch them with it, then convert it to UTF-8. Or wouldn't it be easier take aspell dictionary entirely? It has 'ye', 'yo' and 'yeyo' variants.
I could probably munge together the two ye and yo dicts myself, but the real question is if there is a current, up-to-date and maintained combined ye+yo hunspell or firefox or libreoffice of openoffice.org dictionary already available ?
Firefox one works correctly.
