This will become wrong in the future, scribus uses the same dicts
and when they will get ficed to actually use those from the system...

/usr/share/hunspell
/usr/share/hyphen

therefore is a given, one can argue about the thesauri, what I'll
do for Debian is /usr/share/mythes, because of lib*mythes* analogous
to lib*hyphen* and lib*hunspell*.

True, but then again vanilla OOo is not built with those options on at all.
