                    en_AU
           Product: LibreOffice

Hi!

In Debian we have this package:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/openoffice.org-en-au
Besides the hunspell dictionary (wrongly named myspell- there) which is already
in libreoffice-dictionaries, that package also provides a mythes-en-au
dictionary.

Here are the sources:
https://sources.debian.org/src/openoffice.org-en-au/2.1-5.5/

However, the maintainer for that package seems to have disappeared more than a
decade ago…
Reading through the README and following URLs, I *believe* the dictionary was
provided by this guy: https://www.australian-dictionary.com.au/
I haven't tried contacting him to see if that's the right place, but for sure
the fact that he doesn't publish tarballs directly is annoying.

As such, I wonder if somebody from LibreOffice is interested in chasing this
down, and including an en-au thesaurus dictionary.

(Unrelated, I also note that libreoffice-dictionaries also doesn't provide an
en-gb dict for mythes!  But I have no idea where to find that…)


Thank you for considering! :)
