The description I gave there is a rather accurate description of the bug itself, but indeed it doesn't explain its effects. The effect is: if I modify the OpenOffice sources (extensions.lst) in order to use a newer version of the Italian (or Spanish) dictionary, by providing a new download link and a new MD5 checksum for it, the build system (unless we are building on a completely clean system, and this is a different problem) will continue to use any previously downloaded version. So the most recent builds from Ariel, for example, do not bundle the latest Italian dictionary and are not consistent with the latest source code. > And no one has set the release blocker flag. The dictionary update is a problem but the inconsistency with the source code is probably a bigger problem. As for release blockers, I honestly expect that when RC1 is out we will have a look at significant bugs that emerge (including a couple of existing bugs that might not be release blockers by themselves but are surely significant, like this one https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119229 and the icons https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119208 ) and, if we have several of them, produce a RC2 instead of listing, say, ten "Known bugs" in the Release notes.
