Details
I've been reading up a bit on 'enchant' and 'myspell', and
I'm not sure where dictionaries should be installed under
Archlinux. Hunspell/myspell seems to expect dictionaries to
be located at /usr/share/myspell.
Would it be possible to compile enchant with --with-myspell-dir=/usr/share/myspell? To do this, I guess, hunspell would have to be moved to current and added as a dependency of enchant. When this is done, myspell dictionaries could be added to the AUR, and perhaps openoffice-devel could be compiled to use dictionaries at /usr/share/myspell, as could other applications. |
This task depends upon
Next step we have to take is providing hunspell dictionaries. These dictionaries should contain some postinstall script to make them work with OpenOffice.org if installed. Having these myspell dictionaries would remove the need for any openoffice-spell-* package.
I installed en_GB and de_DE dictionaries in /usr/share/myspell and /usr/share/myspell/dicts (the latter seems to be the enchant default path for myspell) but enchant doesn't take any of these dictionaries. The aspell dictionaries instead work fine.
