Hi all,

Many MS-Windows users are surprised that LibreOffice default
installation contains all dictionaries although they have the UI only in
their locale and English.
I think that default installation should contain only dictionaries in
the same languages as the UI.

Is it a bug or a feature ? ;-)
If it a bug I will file a bug report. If it is a feature, please explain
the rationale.
Doesn't work in places where you have more than one official language.
You need dictionaries in several languages, not only the one of your
UI.

Yes, but why ~20 dictionaries ? Do you know peoples who need and are
able to write twenty different languages ?

I think the best user friendly installation method should be to ask the
user to choose itself the dictionnaries he wants, whatever the
installation method chosen is (default or custom). With two buttons
"deselect all" and "select all".

Using the same argument, I don't know many people that use 20+ file
formats, yet we install filtera for a bunch of these, without a panel
to select/deselect them
furthermore, the person that do the installation is not necessarily
the best qualified to determine what language the end-user _should_
need.

Note that having a panel to select/deselect would not improve the size
of the installation packages (it could reduced the size of the
_installed_ packages),
which is what the original complaint was about
