There are some differences in dictionary contents for some languages
between upstream LibreOffice Dictionaries and Fedora packages. I think it
will be good to have upstream dictionaries tested well for this Fedora 45
release by end users before we make them default in langpacks in Fedora 46
release. We intend to have this testing done as part of our Fedora 45 i18n
test week event.
Also, note that only subset of Fedora hunspell dictionaries are available
in upstream LibreOffice Dictionaries repository.

Regards,
Parag
