------- Additional comments from cche...@openoffice.org Fri Apr 10 19:37:12 +0000 2009 ------- While I was talking to Rene today I realized that actually falling back would be better than trying to fix up with symlinks all the cases of ll_cc since we don't necessarily know which variant of English a country speaks. By symlinking eg en_CA.dic to en.dic (a hypothetical British English dictionary) we are essentially claiming it to be the same, but just having it fall back via the app to en.dic doesn't make that same guarantee from a developer/packager perspective. Most languages are spoken/written in most countries (many to many correlation) due to the diverse nature of the world and having to either verify every language/country variant or having no dictionary available at all for that language/country combination is annoying to both developers and users. When a user determines that the language dictionary is no appropriate for their country they can file a bug and mention which variant is more like their own eg en_CA vs en_US vs en_GB and/or supply their own dictionary to replace the fallback. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
