Description

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:39.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/39.0
Build ID: 20150630154324

Steps to reproduce:

Over a textarea: contextual menu → Languages


Actual results:

Only English (United States) is listed.


Expected results:

I should have got the dictionaries from /usr/share/hunspell (like with Debian's Iceweasel).

It seems that when Firefox was using MySpell, system-wide dictionaries were taken into account: bug 429023, which was fixed.
