            Bug ID: 131659
           Summary: Spellcheck doesn't mark bad words with non-english
                    dictionaries
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dhpereh at mailbox.org

Description:
though everything works fine with English dictionary, using another
dictionaries (in my case, Hebrew) doesn't mark wrong words with red line. The
software does recognize the dictionary since pressing F7 the spellcheck takes
me through all the bad words and gives sensible alternatives.
using the exact steps below between 6.3.x and 6.4.x, I found out the problem
started in 6.4 and wasn't fixed yet.

If its relevant, the issue happened on multiple machines, wayland and xorg,
nouveou and proprietary nvidia drivers.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install libreoffice and hunspell-he 
2. set locale settings to Hebrew, user interface remains in english.
3. in Default Languages for Documents, set complex text layout to Hebrew. It
shows an icon indicating that the software detects the dictionary.
4. apply the new settings, restart writer for changes to take affect
5. type in Hebrew

Actual Results:
no marking appears for wrong words (not Hebrew and not English). (the same
steps were tested in 6.3.x and it works fine)

Expected Results:
marking appears under wrong words. for both languages


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Version: 6.4.2.2

CPU threads: 6; OS: Linux 5.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3;
