Update Swedish spellcheck and hyphenation dictionaries

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

trusty SRU request
==================

[Impact]
While the libreoffice-dictionaries source package contains reasonably updated spell check dictionaries and hyphenation patterns for Swedish, it does currently not build hunspell-sv-se and hyphen-sv. In Utopic this has now been fixed, and the outdated hyphenation patterns for Swedish in openoffice.org-hyphenation have been dropped.

It's desirable that it's fixed in Trusty as well, so Swedish 14.04 users don't need to go hunting on the web for up-to-date writing aids. After all, LibreOffice is one of the core tools on the desktop.

[Test Case]
I haven't figured out specific examples of words or patterns that are currently missing and will be included with this SRU.

[Regression Potential]
Once it has been verified that the up-to-date dictionaries are installed correctly, and that spell checking and hyphenation works as expected in LibreOffice, the risk for regression ought to be limited to the risk that certain words or patterns, which are currently included, proves to have been dropped.

[Other Info]
I have attached an SRU patch for libreoffice-dictionaries. As regards openoffice.org-hyphenation, some encoding problem in one of the removed files prevented me from creating a patch that applies seamlessly. Instead I simply suggest that openoffice.org-hyphenation 0.8 is uploaded to trusty-proposed as version 0.7.1.

Changing status temporarily, so this bug report shows up in the sponsorship queue.

Hi Björn!

Are you in doubt about this, or can it be uploaded to trusty-proposed?

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj)]

@Brian: Sebastien and Björn talked briefly about this SRU request, and concluded that it would be a good idea to ask the SRU team for advice before uploading to trusty-proposed. What makes this fix special is that it consists of two new binaries. Any thoughts?

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj)]

Just talked with Adam Conrad on IRC about this (time in CET):

GunnarHj 16:29:12
infinity: Thanks! Now, when I caught an SRU team member... Could you also read the last comment at bug 1308771 and give us your opinion?
infinity 16:33:53
GunnarHj: I have no issues with the two new binaries. New lang-specific binaries pop up all the time in SRUs of langpacks and firefox, for instance.
GunnarHj: Does this affect any *other* packages though (like, say, langpacks) that need to adjust deps?
GunnarHj 16:35:32
infinity: No, it's not related to langpacks at all. It's language specific language aids for libreoffice. But thank, that's what we wanted to know.
infinity 16:35:39
GunnarHj: In fact, how do these hyphen-* packages get installed? I have hyphen-en-us installed, but nothing seems to depend on it.
GunnarHj 16:36:41
infinity: They are simply added to a location where libreoffice will find them.
infinity 16:37:07
GunnarHj: Err, what? I mean, how do the packages end up installed.
GunnarHj 16:38:06
infinity: They are pulled by pkg_depends in language-selector if that's what you mean.
infinity 16:38:18
GunnarHj: Okay, so does language-selector need updating for this?
GunnarHj 16:38:34
infinity: No.
infinity 16:39:20
GunnarHj: Alright, that's what I was asking.
GunnarHj: The new binaries aren't an issue at all, IMO.
GunnarHj 16:39:43
infinity: Excellent, thanks!

I'm not an expert on these dictionaries, however, the build succeeds, the packaging looks reasonable and the resulting binaries look mostly similar to the binaries for other languages. However, most of the hyphen-* packages have something in /usr/share/myspell/infos/ooo/hyphen-*, but hyphen-sv does not. Can you comment?

[Jamie Strandboge (jdstrand)]

Unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors for now. Please resubscribe after commenting on/adjusting the packaging. Thanks!

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson (gunnarhj)]

I don't remember (almost four months ago) why I skipped /usr/share/myspell/infos/ooo/hyphen-sv, and I certainly don't know the significance of it. Anyway, for consistency reasons I just filed an utopic MP which adds the file debian/hyphen-sv.dictlistinfo. I also modified the libreoffice-dictionaries patch for trusty accordingly.

Uploaded, thanks
