[Impact]

"update-openoffice-dicts" got removed from dictionaries-common in
version 1.12.0. But the postinst of myspell-st didn't get updated since
then and makes the package uninstallable (fails in postinst).

[Test Case]

Installing myspell-st fails in the postinst with the above mentioned error in postinst.
Installing the fixed package finishes without error.
