Oh right.

I think it’s fine this way, I hadn’t realized that the hunspell-dict-*
from aspell.scm were English only.

Now, I just noticed that libreoffice.scm also :-) comes with
huspell-dict-* packages, which are built from yet other sources (primary
sources it seems, rather than LibreOffice).

I’ve applied this patch, but perhaps we should now move those
dictionaries from libreoffice.scm to hunspell.scm?

Thanks!

Ludo’.

Dear Guixers,

as discussed here [0] and [1], I'm sending a patch to add a new 
hunspell.scm file to store hunspell dictionaries and an Italian 
dictionary. I tried to make my implementation reusable by other 
languages by defining a function that produces dictionary packages.

If there is consensus I can move other hunspell dictionaries to the new 
file and/or convert them to use the new function.

Thank you for your review.

Cheers,

Giacomo
