I also have had this bug with both openoffice and openoffice-bin, but cannot reproduce everytime. perhaps this is a openoffice bug and not a ebuild bug? The solution to all my problems and to yours as well most likely is not a bug, its a problem of having a old OO config file around which is screwing things up. Try: deleting all OpenOffice and .OpenOffice files from your user directory, then also remove a file called .sversionrc. re-run /opt/OpenOffice/setup and when prompted do the "workstation" install... and all your problems will magically disappear. this problem is caused by older versions of OO (pre1.0 in my case) having been installed before using the ebuilds to install. let me know if this works, i'm very confident it will. the db compile problem i'm not sure about... dave Ditto for me. I'm using OpenOffice-bin (the source wouldn't emerge on my box). On trying to save any doc, I get a message box saying "An unrecoverable error has occurred. All modified files have been saved and can probably be recovered at program restart." Please disregard my previous comment. I followed the directions in Comment #2 by Dave Nellans - now OO works fine :) |
