 So, the OpenOffice.org-3 users are supposed to download .oxt files and
 run them. However, I experienced the 'bad transfer url' problem with all
 extension files; this was reported on FreeBSD mailing lists in the past
 with no available solution.

 Happily, the instruction from the same page (DictOOo-Wizard, intended
 for OpenOffice.org-2) worked just fine in my OpenOffice-3. I downloaded

   
 http://ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/dicooo/DicOOo.sxw

 and it worked like a charm, installing Hunspell Spellchecker module and
 dictionary files.

I had the same experience.  Note that to install the dictionaries for
all users, I needed write access to 
/usr/local/openoffice.org-3.0.0/openoffice.org/basis3.0/share/dict/ooo
and to some of the files inside of it.

 Should the language modules have been installed or have I missed

Hi Mike,

Don't think ya missed anything, I am in the same boat...
I also compiled with the LOCALIZED_LANG=en-GB flag.

Anybody with a solution ? my spelling isn't that good so would need to
spell check my documents.

Regards

I have sr-openoffice.org-3.1.20081009/, i.e. openoffice.org-3-devel
compiled with

  'editors/openoffice*' = [
'LOCALIZED_LANG=sr',
'WITHOUT_CUPS=yes',
'WITH_SYSTEM_FREETYPE=yes',
'WITH_SYSTEM_ICU=yes',
  ]

on FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE #0: Sun Oct 12 (i386) and I have all 3
sections in Tools - Options - Language Settings - Writing Aids.

The OpenOffice.org dictionaries page says:
