Description keranenkeijo 2013-10-20 07:25:20 UTC
Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:

It's supposed to hyphenate words in Finnish
              
Operating System: Ubuntu

Finnish hyphenation is handled by Voikko extension. Make sure you have Voikko installed (Tools > Extension Manager) and that Finnish hyphenation is enabled (Tools > Options > Language Settings > Writing Aids > Available language modules > Tavutus). For detailed instructions in Finnish, see

I think this may basically be a bug in the user interface. If I untick the Finnish hyphenation module and then choose Tools > Language > Hyphenation, LibreOffice tells me that the hyphenation has been completed even when nothing has actually been done. Instead the user should be informed that the applicable language module is not available or has not been activated. (Tested in 3.5.4.2 on Debian and in 4.1.2.3 on Windows; this bug is probably inherited from OOo.)

Summary amended for clarity. May also need to be an enhancement.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (4.4.1 or later): https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3)

http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword

This issue seems fixed in LibO 5.0.0.5 (on both Linux and Windows). The process still ends with "Hyphenation completed" message, but when initiated for the first time, it now warns the user of missing hyphenation support for Finnish. I think this should be sufficient.
