[gentoo-user] new English spellchecking dictionaries

[»Q«]

Many months ago, I posted that I was working on a new ebuild for
English spellchecking dictionaries.  For various reasons, my work
kept getting put on hold, but now Michael Palimaka has committed an
ebuild, app-dicts/myspell-en-20151201.  Since I brought it up before,
I'm bringing it up now to encourage testing.

It looks to me like it should Just Work for everyone.  Its source is a
LO extension which rolls the latest en dicts into one file,
<http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/english-dictionaries/releases/2015.12.01>.
(That that didn't yet exist when I was trying this, so I was trying to
use various sources, which is one of my excuses for not getting it
done.)
