Description Silvio Frischknecht 2016-04-05 10:31:38 UTC 
Please support "XDG Base Directory Specification" for finding hunspell/myspell directories.
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html

Look for them in
$XDG_DATA_HOME/myspell/dicts (fallback: ~/.local/share/myspell/dicts)
$XDG_DATA_DIRS/myspell/dicts

or alternatively
$XDG_DATA_HOME/hunspell (fallback: ~/.local/share/hunspell)
$XDG_DATA_DIRS/hunspell

Enchant supports this. Firefox seems to find them there too.

Reproducible: Always
