libreoffice doesn't come with the en-us dictionary #26234

Closed magnetophon closed 1 year ago

magnetophon commented 7 years ago

Issue description

When installing LibreOffice, one would expect there to be a default dictionary to handle spell-checking. There isn't.

The pkgs has "# TODO: dictionaries", put there by @domenkozar, and "--without-myspell-dicts", by @viric

Technical details

This is super annoying, I had to write a report in a hurry. There is a quick workaround by installing an extension.

This still seems to be the case :(

80353 aims to make spellcheck in LibreOffice work with hunspell dictionaries installed with Nix. Testing appreciated.

magnetophon commented 4 years ago

How do I test? I tried running nix-review pr 80353 but the resulting binary didn't have working spellcheck as far as I could tell.

mmilata commented 4 years ago

@magnetophon You also need to install hunspellDicts.xx_YY packages for languages xx_YY you want to spellcheck.

magnetophon commented 4 years ago

Idk what's going on: the first time I ran the above command it ran quickly and now it's been building for 18 hours.

mmilata commented 4 years ago

My guess is that LibreOffice has been updated in master (#80375) but Hydra hasn't built it yet (because it's busy with 20.03?) so you're building it from source.

magnetophon commented 4 years ago

Ah, I didn't know nix-review pr built from master. thanks.

mmilata commented 4 years ago

I'm not sure either, I suppose it tries to merge with master before building? Either way, if you have local copy of the nixpkgs repository you can build the package by checking out the branch and then running nix-build . -A libreoffice in the repo directory, hopefully the (older version of) main package will download from Hydra and the shell wrapper will be placed in result.
