[ooo-build] Available language modules list is emty for me [SOLVED]

[espinosa_cz]

OK it is solved. An extra package was missing ooobasis3.1-ooolinguistic.
yum install ooobasis3.1-ooolinguistic ..and I have working spellchecker 
for the first time with go-oo build! Woooohoo!
Anyway, it is tricky. I found it only by chance. There is a serious lack 
of end user documentation to you build. What exactly is one supposed to 
install.
There are piles and piles of packages, mostly language mutations, it is 
easy to get lost and miss an important package.

Best Regards
Jan
