No.
From reportbug:
2 minor things like spelling mistakes and other minor cosmetic errors that do not affect the core functionality of the package.
3 normal a bug that does not undermine the usability of the whole package; for example, a problem with a particular option or menu item.
This clearly falls into 2 -> minor. It's only cosmetic.
This dictionary creates two entries:
No, it doesn't create anything.
1. Deutsch (Deutschland, frami)
2. Deutsch (Deutschland)

Those entries you see directly result from the .dic file names *when LibreOffice sees stuff in /usr/share/hunspell*.
Actually I am surprised that it recognizes de_DE_frami without the de_DE compat symlink..
If the two entries are identical, please combine them to create one dictionary
entry.
Maybe the compat symlink should be removed then.
*Maybe*.
Because I am quite sure that other stuff will *NOT* recognize it withot _frami. Which would break then.
And hunspell is not used in LibreOffice oly, ut the _exact same_ dictionary used in Firefox, Thunderbird, ...
=> wontfix
(Actually I personally think the frami thingy shouldn't exist at all, I just packaged it for completeness....)

Rene
