Milan: I disagree with you to dismiss it all on that "with a little search in Launchpad you can find this" etc. As I wrote before I used 1/2 day fiddling to figure out the problem. And I have used Linux for the last 15 years. Several new desktop users of Linux I know (for which 'Launchpad', 'compiz', 'metacity' are words they have never heard before) have just given up (had to switch to Windows) because serious Office users just NEEDS dictionaries and this bug is blocking them installing dicts for doing their work on Linux. So, if Ubuntu is serious about being an alternative to Windows for office use I think this bug must be taken a bit more serious. I have added info to http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries so at least the workaround is shown in one of the first 10 pages that google 'Ubuntu OpenOffice install dictionaries' will give .
