Usertags: unblock
Severity: normal
Please unblock package hunspell-ar
[ Reason ]
The version of hunspell-ar in testing uses a Hunspell dictionary
name that cannot be enumerated by LibreOffice. This is reported
in #1109305.
[ Impact ]
Users of LibreOffice cannot usehunspell-ar as their spell-checking
language.
[ Tests ]
I manually tested the fixed package, which added the creation of
symlinks of the dictionary file names from ar to ar_CN and ar_BT,
in LibreOffice and was able to successfully enable hunspell-ar
spell checking with the dictionary file name format LibreOffice
knows how to enumerate.
[ Risks ]
Only added the creation of symlinks in the debian/links file so
that LibreOffice can recognize the dictionary.
[ Checklist ]
[X] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[X] attach debdiff against the package in testing
