Bug Description
Possibly related console output:
```
(gedit:16993): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 22:40:02.951: Error creating IO channel for /proc/self/
(gedit:16993): gspell-WARNING **: 22:40:03.068: iso_639.xml: Failed to open file ?/usr/share/

```
The check spelling window spills "Error: Spell checker error: no language set. It’s maybe because no dictionaries are installed."
In the poedit snap that uses GtkSpell and Enchant to implement the spellchecking we patched the iso-codes prefix and packs all the spellchecking dictionaries to solve the issue:

Also, I've packaged a Hunspell content snap that provides the dictionaries:

The iso-codes issue got resolved with https:/ /gitlab. gnome.org/ GNOME/gedit/ commit/ 0b3c018d
The snap doesn't include dictionnaries though...
