Bug 95675 – acents (in Spanish) doesn't work in app-office/openoffice-1.1.4-r1

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pablo De Nápoli 2005-06-10 05:17:09 UTC]

I've emerged openoffice-1.1.4-r1 with Spanish support (LINGUAS="es") 
The accents in Spanish does not work, eventhough they do work 
for all other X applications (for example KDE and Gnome applications)  
 
I've set the locales for Spanish (in /etc/env.d/02locale 
 
LC_ALL="es_AR" 
LANG="es_AR" 
 
In my /etc/X11/xorg.conf I have the following keyboard configuration: 
 
Section "InputDevice" 
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard" 
        Driver          "kbd" 
        Option          "CoreKeyboard" 
 
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc106" 
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "es" 
EndSection

Bug open here http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88868

Actually this sounds like another bug, as bug #88868 is triggered by the
gtk-support in openoffice-ximain which vanilla openoffice does not have.

Most likely this is a local config problem, we had another - quite similar bug -
where it seems to have been wrongly set up localization stuff, see:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91074

Also: What happens if you change your settings in /etc/env.d/02locale to plain
"es" instead of "es_AR"? (don't forget to run env-update after that)

Need more info here (see my last comment), otherwise there is nothing we can do
