Bug Description

LibreOffice has no red underlines for misspelled words in English since my locale is Swedish, Swedish spellcheck works. I can change to English spellchecking but since the package hunspell-en-us isn't installed there is no indication that it's missing and not working.

locale
LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=sv:en
LC_CTYPE="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_TIME=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="sv_SE.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_NAME=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=sv_SE.UTF-8
LC_ALL=

[SOLVED] sudo apt-get install hunspell-en-us
After restarting LibreOffice English spellchecking works.
