Yeah that is really nice idea, instead of description I changed it to
ime_name and its working fine, only problem is there is 2 variation of
Norwegian which is like Norwegian (sometext) which splits like
* Norwegian
* (somtext)
This is not desired, but I don't know how to over come this so I've
made it as comment for now. If you can suggest modification for fixing
this let me know.
# scriptlist := $(shell sed -n 's/^ime_name.* = \([^.]*\) -.*/\1/p' hunspell-tables/* | sort -u)

Can you do me a favour and try the built package? I can provide you the
deb file if desired. I'm not able to get ibus working on my system
without Gnome :(.
Also is it okay to suggest/recommend huge number of hunspell
dictionaries with this package?
Thanks for the review.
