I want to delete the unwanted dictionnaries, to avoid choosing between a very long list.
Now i have 30 variants of english, and when i want to change the dictionnary i have to scroll all the list.
Is there a place that they are stored so i can delete the unwanted ?

My first ports of call in this case would be:
~/.local/
~/.config/
~/.*spell/

You might need to recursively search these to find the relevant files.

Does Mageia have a Control centre or similar that allows you to delete packages as well as install them?

I have these packages installed:

[dglent@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep aspell
aspell-en-7.1.0-2.mga2
aspell-el-0.50.3-15.mga2
aspell-fr-0.50.3-19.mga2
aspell-debug-0.60.6-12.mga1
aspell-0.60.6.1-2.mga2
lib64aspell-devel-0.60.6.1-2.mga2
lib64aspell15-0.60.6.1-2.mga2


And i have 22 variants of english, 6 variants of french, two variants of greek and hebrew.

I have 31 dictionnaries in a small size list and i need only 3 of them (English (one, eg US), French (France), Greek (Greece)) and is difficult every time to scroll the list to find the wanted dictionnary.

I'm intrigued with the "22 variants of english" as I have only 4 (Eng, US, GB & Can), what and where did these 18 additional come from? are they part of Aspell? What are the contents of the En package?

Normaly i should have only 3 like you.
Here is the content of the package aspell-el

If you create a new user, how many dictionaries?

are the extra's just duplicates?

I have just tested and a new user has 31 dictionaries too.
I reported too to mageia bugzilla https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6269, there is another similar bug report but for thunderbird: https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6184

Finaly it is hunspell that is used now, and after deleting the unwanted dictionaries in /usr/share./hunspell it is ok now
