I used the program download_new_dic.py (within the spellchecker subdirectory) to download and to install a German dictionary.
The program and the instructions to install the dictionary just work fine.
However, all words containing a German Umlaut (ä, ö, ü, ß) were marked as being misspelled. I could solve this by converting the downloaded dictionary files de_DE.dic and de_DE.aff from latin1 (ISO8859) to utf-8 encoding.
It would be good to mention this possible issue in the notes.
