The cause of this appears to be that there is no symlink for en-gb under /usr/share/mythes and when the old /usr/share/myspell/dicts/info/ooo/* method was no longer used then it no longer shows up for en-gb users. I think this probbaly affects all OOo 3.0 and newer.
This should be fixed for 10.04.1. ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => ubuntu-10.04.1 ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Chris Cheney (ccheney) -- openoffice.org writer: cannot use English (UK) thesaurus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/578744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
