For Fedora we use http://www.dicollecte.org/download/fr/hunspell-french
-dictionaries-v6.0.2.zip and just unzip it and rename the
toutesvariantes.* to fr_FR.* to serve as the default French spelling
dictionary.

FYI: ‘classique’ is (now) the recommended one (as per README) although
‘toutesvariantes’ is the safe one to avoid ‘false’ misspelling
indications. 

Secondly, what the rest of LibreOffice does with this then is probably
still a little unclear in parts. I see that in our format character
dialog where we can directly enter bcp47 that I can successfully enter
a tag like de-1996 but not fr-x-whatever so it appears the the private
use tags are not allowed there for some additional reason I don't know
(@erack?)

Anyhow, in fedora wrt french spelling we just took the recommended
dictionary and set it as the default system wide fr_FR.

This is what is being done on Gentoo currently. I find it suboptimal and
was hoping to improve the situation. LO is making this a bit harder than
I'd expected. But I'll find a way. Thanks much for the very helpful
explanations!
