Keyboard layouts are stored in *.mim files which are installed from m17n-db and m17n-contrib packages.

But still some packages are using aspell dictionaries.The preference order for various dictionaries is defined currently in /usr/share/enchant/enchant.ordering file.

Fedora 11 onwards we have hyphen packages as part of hyphenation dictionary support for OpenOffice.org applications.
