Description:
Spell checking stopped working after system upadate: pacman -Suy Additional info: * 6.2.4-1 Everything is upadtaed to the last software on the 28th May 2019. Steps to reproduce: Open LibreOffice Writer, write all the wrong words you want. No spell ckecking report the worng words. It say no dictionary available, and it's not true. It worked perfectly till 2-3 weeks ago. I know because I use LibreOffice Writer everyday. Hunspell work from command line, so it's LibreOffice package related. |

$ pacman -Q libreoffice-fresh
libreoffice-fresh 6.2.4-1
$ pacman -Q|grep hunspell
hunspell 1.7.0-2
hunspell-en_AU 2018.04.16-5
hunspell-en_CA 2018.04.16-5
hunspell-en_GB 2018.04.16-5
hunspell-en_US 2018.04.16-5
hunspell-it 2.4-5
I don't know what packages were updated when this broke because I didn't know that this could become broke with an update. It happens when was released another libreoffice-fresh package after 6.2.3-1 maybe a libreoffice-fresh 6.2.3-2 . The 6.2.4-1 didn't fix the issue that's why I wrote now.
If I try to do a manual spell checking pressing F7 it doesn't find the dictionary, but hunspell from command line works.
$ hunspell -l -d en_US test_en.txt
hehdfwhk
hdkleh
$ cat test_en.txt
He told me hehdfwhk and I hdkleh
$ hunspell -l -d it_IT test_it.txt
hehddd
tueeee
$ cat test_it.txt
Io dico che è una cosa giusta hehddd ma tueeee.
Where "hehddd" and "tueee" are correctly reported because they are not correct as Italian words.
$ pacman -Q|grep thes
libmythes 1:1.2.4-3
mythes-en 20060306-4
mythes-it 2.0.9l-5
No, we will not assign the bug, because as far as everyone but you knows, it works fine. Before we can proceed, we need some way of confirming that the bug even exists.
If you reinstall libreoffice-fresh, is it still broken? Does the error appear when you run it via the command line as loffice --safe-mode?
Thanks for the suggestion.
