As an OpenOffice.org translator, I know that the mail merge / database
strings were changed somewhere between 1.1.0 and 1.1.2. That may be the
cause of your problem, as you have a language pack from 1.1.2 and the
rest from 1.1.1. Your bugreport leaves me unsure if this is the reason,
but mixing versions is probably not a good idea anyway.

Bug#271868: openoffice.org: Spellchecking no longer works
With the latest installed version of OpenOffice.org, spellchecking does
not work correctly out of the box. Furthermore, OO.org gives no errors
or inclination that anything is wrong.
The issue is that oo.org cannot find the writing aids to perform
spellchecking, hyphenation, and the thesarus. Normally, it searches for
them in /usr/lib/openoffice/share/dict/ooo. The directory isn't
even created, despite the fact a fresh install of openoffice.org
refers to it.
Upon installing the required dependenices packages, that directory
remains empty. The packages install their data in
/usr/share/my spell/dicts, and run update-openoffice-dicts to update the
dictionary.lst file.
The only error that can be created is by going to Tools -> Options ->
Openoffice.org -> Paths, and modifiying the 'Writing Aids' path, you'll
get a message complaining that /usr/lib/openoffice/share/dict doesnt'
exist, and then it'll specify a new path.
However, specifying /usr/share/myspell/dicts will not work, as oo.org
wants the files in a subdirectory ooo/ of the given directory.
