[Bug 590450] [NEW] Firefox needs change for dictionary transition

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

This may be a dupe as launchpad OOPSd on my last attempt to file this
report.

Firefox in Ubuntu needs support for the dictionary transition that
happened in Debian last year. I told several people about this issue on
IRC and at UDS but it seems to have not been fixed yet and may have been
forgotten so I am filing this bug now. I am not sure if Firefox has
basis in any packaging in Debian but if so then a general merge of other
fixes may be needed as well. I know Debian doesn't have a 'Firefox'
package as such but does have an unbranded version.

The fix appears to be changing this line:

rules:  dh_link usr/share/myspell/dicts $(DEBIAN_FF3_DIR)/dictionaries

to

rules:  dh_link usr/share/hunspell $(DEBIAN_FF3_DIR)/dictionaries

Thanks,

Chris Cheney
