Main Inclusion Report for openoffice.org-voikko
Requirements
1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/openoffice.org-voikko/ , builds on all platforms
2. Rationale: openoffice.org-voikko offers openoffice.org support for Finnish spellchecking, and depends on libvoikko to do that. Voikko (as a whole) is the only open source solution for a good quality Finnish spell-checking. myspell, aspell, ispell, hunspell just do not handle it well enough for general work. Thus it is related to the Ubuntu's core philosophical ideal nr. 2: "Every computer user should be able to use their software in the language of their choice."
3. Security: No CVEs or other security issues.
4. Quality assurance:
- Works out of the box.
- No major bugs known.
Debian package: http://packages.qa.debian.org/o/openoffice.org-voikko.html
Debian in freeze now, http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/o/openoffice.org-voikko/ could be imported for a little packaging clean-up (the only upstream change not in 1.1-4 Debian package already is the OOo component name change)
5. Standards compliance:
- debhelper packaging.
- FHS met.
- Debian policy/ies met.
6. Dependencies:
7. Comment: The main goal is to have libvoikko/tmispell-voikko/openoffice.org-voikko as an official part of the Finnish language support in Ubuntu, supporting ispell and libenchant (tmispell-voikko) and openoffice.org. More is coming (like Mozilla support). With the Voikko support integrated, the following packages may be removed from language-support-fi dependencies: myspell-fi, aspell-fi, wfinnish. And the binary packages to add there include at least voikko-fi, libvoikko1, tmispell-voikko, libenchant-voikko and openoffice.org-voikko.
