I'd go with updating all packages to ship the converted files. Cluttering /usr with untracked files doesn't sound good.

Yeah, I agree. I think we should package convert_dict from the Chromium sources as a new package to makedepend on. Assuming that WebEngine will not be the only consumer of .bdic dictionaries, how about putting them in /usr/share/bdic, and then either patching sources to use that dir or linking whatever engine-specific dictionaries there? We could also put them with the other dictionaries into /usr/share/hunspell, assuming that won't cause problems.
