+oops, sorry, my bad,  I had in mind that mga1 hunspell dictionaries 
+already provided hunspell-dictionary.
+so it can work, we will be able to require hunspell-dictionary to ensure 
+that at least one hunspell dictionary "new generation" is installed.

+when we know that a package needs a specific version of a library, we 
+add it in the requires.
+e.g. rpm -q --requires firefox |grep "sqlite\|nspr\|nss"
+lib64sqlite3_0 >= 3.7.9
+lib64nss3 >= 2:3.13.1
+lib64nspr4 >= 2:4.8.9
+
+by analogy, I think that we should ensure that the needed dictionary's 
+package is installed.
+
+
+PS: the directory /usr/share/hunspell is currently owned by no package
+cf. urpmf "^/usr/share/hunspell$"
+the best candidate is probably hunspell.
