I can't figure out a way to get rid of all those those unwanted colonial English, and Spanish, and dialectal German dictionaries. It is really a pain to switch between languages, when you must look for your dict in a heap of exotic dialects you've never heard of in your whole life and most likekely you'll never use. Please, provide either a way to disable unwanted dictionaries or provide separated packets for the different regional dialects.

take this to hunspell-en maintainers of your loonix distribution.

As a matter of fact I deleted time ago all the unwanted hunspell dicts, so I don't think it is about that. I've just found that if $HOME/.config/libreoffice is deleted, only the installed dictionaries show checkmarked the next time the  program runs, and it seems to solve the issue. An annoying list of not installed dictionaries remains, though, but at least they're not randomly checkmarked.
