Package: libreoffice-writer Version: 1:3.3.2-2+b1 Severity: normal Hi! Thanks for maintaining LibreOffice in Debian.
I have the following packages installed (along with their dependencies): * libreoffice * libreoffice-l10n-it * hyphen-en-us * mythes-en-us * hyphen-it * mythes-it No special configuration tweaking was done. I start libreoffice-writer: $ lowriter and write some stuff in US English; spell checking seems to work correctly: as soon as I write a word the wrong way, it is underlined in a red wavy line, and I can right-click on it to get suggestions and other spell checking related options. OK, let's quit and start over. Once again, I start libreoffice-writer: $ lowriter and write some stuff in Italian; spell checking underlines almost all words, since they are not valid US English. OK, let's change the language from English (USA) to Italian (Italy): I choose this language from Tools -> Language -> For all Text. Language is now set to Italian (Italy) for the entire document, it seems, and I no longer see any word underlined in red. Wait, not even wrongly written words are underlined! I tried to click on the AutoSpellCheck button on the tool bar, with no visible effect. I am not able to get spell checking to work for me in Italian (Italy). It's possible that other languages (different from English (USA)) have the same issue: I tried to install other packages (libreoffice-l10n-en-gb and myspell-en-gb) in order to get English (UK) spell checking, with no success, unfortunately. Also, installing myspell-it does not seem to help. I seem to remember that I had the same problem with openoffice.org, but now, with libreoffice, I think that I really have to solve it once and for all... Please help! What's wrong with my installation? What did I fail to understand?
