Description Luc Menut 2012-02-08 23:41:07 CET

Description of problem:
Each version of lib(64)xulrunner currently embeds these own hyphenation dictionaries.
(Firefox and thunderbird embed hyphenation dictionaries too)
lib(64)xulrunner should use system hyphenation dictionaries installed in /usr/share/hyphen (like it is done for myspell|hunspell dictionaries); it would save some space on install media, and on installed system.

nope, 4437 concerns spelling dictionaries, bug 4447, 4448 and 4450 are about hyphenation dictionaries.
mozilla apps already use system spelling dictionaries and should migrate from myspell dictionaries to hunspell dictionaries, it's bug 4437.
currently each mozilla application embed these hyphenation dictionaries (same dictionaries are duplicated n times); mozilla apps should use shared hyphenation dictionaries, as it is done for spelling dictionaries -> bugs 4447, 4448 and 4450.

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja

Comment 6 Samuel Verschelde 2016-10-11 22:12:11 CEST

This is really not easy to do and nothing has been done in the past 4 years regarding this bug so I'm closing it as WONTFIX. Feel free to reopen if you really want it to stay open but it would probably be better to discuss it on the dev@ mailing list first in that case.

Resolution: (none) => WONTFIX
