Hi,

Not sure you got my previous mail, but I've got few questions regarding
the switch :
 - aspell and myspell both provides enchant-dictionary and respectively
  aspell-dictionary and myspell-dictionary but hunspell doesn't. Could we
  have this kind of provides added to hunspell-xx ? When
  suggested/required, it allows than at least one dictionary is installed.

 - enchant doesn't find hunspell dict, it search in %datadir/dict/ooo
   (where myspell install them) and hunspell dict are in %datadir/myspell/.
   Should this be fixed at enchant level or at hunspell level ?

regards
Julien
