I reproduce this problem with a fresh install of 8.04 here in Canada: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg-query -W openoffice.org-core openoffice.org-core 1:2.4.0-3ubuntu6 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
Though I can work around this problem using Format > Character > Language and choosing "English (USA)", several students for whom I installed Ubuntu complain that spellcheck is broken. I notice this problem on a fresh install of 8.04 in Canada, "AutoSpellcheck" appears to be on, but does not detect misspellings and Tools > Spellcheck reports that spellcheck completed successfully, though misspellings are not detected. I think in both cases (using AutoSpellcheck or Tools > Spellcheck) OO.org should warn the user that no dictionary is available, instead of reported that spellcheck completed successfully. Thanks and best wishes, Jack -- [Upstream] [hardy] Open office appears to complete spell check when no spell check dictionary is installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203759 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
