Thanks for the explanation. That doesn't make it easier for the end user. Me and my colleagues also thought that hunspell-da is _the_ one and best one to use and that myspell-da is the same, but created a while back and packaged for myspell. Easy mistake to make.
How are these differentiated for e.g. LibreOffice? I have no idea how to improve this, perhaps: - hunspell-da (non-DSDO, leave as is) - myspell-da (DSDO) move content to hunspell-da-dsdo and convert myspell-da into a dummy transitional package depending on hunspell-da-dsdo Something like this would put the arguably superior Danish spelling support in a better position, package name-wise. Leveling the playing field. Additionally, LibreOffice could also ship it as da-dsdo. Currently, only the arguably less-superioir Danish support is in there, see https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/dictionaries/tree/ But it is just an idea and leave it up to you.
