OK, for the benefit of those on the list we just thrashed this out on IRC. We'd like to do the following: * openoffice.org Suggests: openoffice.org-spellcheck * Each language pack Suggests: openoffice.org-spellcheck-<lang> where <lang> is de, fr, en etc.. * Where this is only one dictionary for a language (-fr?), that will be called openoffice.org-spellcheck-<lang> and provide -spellcheck * Where there are several dictionaries, they will be called e.g. -de-de and -de-ch, and each will provide -spellcheck-de and -spellcheck * The special case of -de-de also providing the Austrian dictionary will be openoffice.org-spellcheck-de-de Provides: -spellcheck-de-at. Phew! Why so complicated? We want to support the following scenarios: - A user installs openoffice.org and is looking for dictionaries, so all dicts Provides: -spellcheck. - A user installs a language pack, so we Suggests: dictionaries for that language and the dictionaries use Provides: -spellcheck-<lang> - A user knows exactly which language to install and tries to install using the dictionary name: e.g. apt-get openoffice.org-spellcheck-de-at. Jerome, how does that sound to you for French? Chris
