Please do not take this the "wrong" way.  Would you let me know what 
dictionaries are installed with the UK and Swedish versions of the 
language packs.  There should be only one for the UK but Swedish has a 
version for Finland as well.  I found that one while I added my list of 
all the "known" dictionaries on the last three-quarters for the 
extension page for the North American DVD project.

I am wondering if the Swedish pack installs the thesaurus, spelling 
dictionary, and the Finland version.  I found these as separate add ons 
and wonder if the spelling dictionary and thesaurus shows up separately 
in the Extension Manager.

I just got a "bug" in me about the dictionaries for LibreOffice.  When I 
"tested" it on my Vista laptop [which I rarely use for "office suite 
work"] I used the "all language" version and installed 5 or more extra 
languages.  It seemed that I got a dictionary for the entire language 
list in the custom install.  Not just the languages I installed, but the 
whole list.  I am glad that we get to choose language packs with Linux, 
but my Ubuntu desktop keeps giving a dependency error for a .deb that I 
have installed but it wants en-GB instead of the file name en-gb.  So I 
cannot check out what Linux installs.
