Description Jürgen Geuter 2009-03-24 08:09:38 UTC

odt2txt is a command-line tool which extracts the text out of
OpenDocument Texts produced by OpenOffice.org, StarOffice, KOffice and
others.

It's really useful to be able to use "diff" on odt files when doing version control.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

odt2txt-0.4 initial ebuild

Initial ebuild for the program, tested and works here on my amd64 system

Comment 2 anomen 2010-03-04 11:50:16 UTC

tested and works fine on x86 and amd64

i'd like to add that odt2txt is default program used by Midnight Commander for viewing odt files. 

odt2txt is provided also by unoconv (see bug 262083) but this one doesn't depend on OOo.

Comment 3 Jürgen Geuter 2010-03-04 11:54:12 UTC

It's also available from my overlay (layman -a tante).

Comment 4 Özgür ERİŞEN 2010-05-05 05:58:55 UTC

This is also needed for enabling indexing on oasis files for tracker. It should be added as a dependency to app-misc/tracker

Comment 7 Dirk Tilger 2010-05-25 09:21:05 UTC

A use case for this tool is when you use git to manage OpenOffice documents and want to be able to see what has changed from one revision to the next.
