Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:125.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/125.0

Steps to reproduce:

In https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/rev/0fc123de30da and https://github.com/mozilla-partners/flatpak/pull/1 the spellchecker.dictionary_path pref was moved to distribution.ini but since then it was found in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1881830 it has no effect causing Firefox to show only en-US as available spell checker.

Actual results:

Firefox shows only en-US as available spell checker.

Expected results:

All spell checkers inflatpak run --command=ls org.mozilla.firefox /usr/share/hunspell should be made available
