Details

Description:

The package community/languagetool includes /usr/share/languagetool/README.md that in "Usage" mentions:
"LanguageTool-5.1.oxt", which is not included with community/languagetool.

Additional info:
* package version: 5.1-1
* "$ pacman -Ql languagetool" doesn't list any ".oxt" file.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Install community/languagetool
2) read /usr/share/languagetool/README.md
3) check "$ pacman -Ql languagetool"


Proposed solution¹:

1) Change package description and/or package name to clarify that the packege corresponds to the standalone tool only and does not include libreoffice/openoffice extension file.
2) Correct the /usr/share/languagetool/README.md "Usage" topic to reflect that.

Proposed solution²:
1) Include LanguageTool-5.1.oxt with the package, and possibly install/link the file to the libreoffice extensions directory.

Since version 7.4 LibreOffice provides options to connect with LanguageTool, without the need for this extension. See https://languagetool.org/insights/post/product-libreoffice/#how-to-enable-languagetool-on-libreoffice (Option C can be used with the systemd-service provided by the languagetool package.)

The README corrections is better addressed upstream: https://github.com/languagetool-org/languagetool/tree/master/languagetool-standalone

The extension is not included in the binary distribution which we are packaging. The mention in the README is something for upstream to fix, as aandre mentioned.
