+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Hello!
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; I have got an idea to fix this bug with a new drak tool (DrakSpell?). It
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; would be an assistant with a list of all available languages with all
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; their variants to select and install. And the trick: it will install a
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; package (like hunspell-en) and remove (rm -f) the unselected dicts
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; (en_CA, en_GB ...).
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; This seems to be against rules.. but would be a solution. And this seems
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; to be much better than producing (and maintaining!) 1000 packages with
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; single dicts.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; What do you think?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Sounds great, I'm willing to test :)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; As a workaround for now, can we just remove all
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; /usr/share/hunspell/*.aff
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; /usr/share/hunspell/*.dic
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; except for the ones we want to keep?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I would like to delete these disctionnaries but i do nt know how, i have
+</I>&gt;<i> 16 variet&#233;s of english and i found only a couple of files for english. I
+</I>&gt;<i> think en and en_ca , i am not 100% sure because i am not at home now.
+</I>&gt;<i> However, if there is a solution to delete manualy the dictionnaries , it
+</I>&gt;<i> is fine for me.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+Firefox seems to get all the languages it sees from /usr/share/hunspell/
+
+It is mostly links in that folder, the ones I had for English are shown
+below. I just removed a lot of such links, and after restarting Firefox,
+my list of languages to choose from was much shorter. All the removed
+ones have disappeared. I haven't restarted Thunderbird yet, so I don't
+know whether the effect will be the same there
