Description Andrea Pescetti 2014-09-04 19:13:42 UTC
A new version of the English dictionary is available at
http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/english-dictionaries-apache-openoffice

This must be updated in file extensions.lst
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/extensions.lst
with a small change like this one:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/extensions.lst?r1=1581746&r2=1606706

The download URL is visible when one clicks on "Download" and the actual download from SourceForge starts. Note: in the browser SourceForge will show a landing page for that URL and start the download after 5 seconds, but wget (or curl) requests will serve the file immediately.

To test the fix, run configure (enabling both category b and dictionaries) and run bootstrap: the new dictionary will be downloaded.

Use md5sum to compute the expected checksum.

Hi Andrea,
I downloaded the new version of English dictionary, ran md5sum on it, and then updated extensions.lst with the calculated checksum and url.
To test the fix, i ran configure with:
./configure  --with-dmake-url=http://dmake.apache-extras.org.codespot.com/files/dmake-4.12.tar.bz2 --with-epm-url=http://www.msweet.org/files/project2/epm-3.7-source.tar.gz --disable-odk --disable-binfilter --enable-category-b --enable-bundled-dictionaries, and bootstrap; the new dictionary dict-en.oxt was downloaded. Please find attached the patch.
