Not true, either. Not everybody is capable of programming in C, even if taught. That they think they can is the root cause of a lot of horrible software around. Me, I learnt C.

I agree with your statement. However for contributing small things, look at the code to track down a bug doesn't require very good probramming skills.
I'm not convinced that is correct - at least personally, I need to know how something is supposed to work before I can even begin think to look for why it doesn't work. It doesn't matter whether it is code or an old radio with a bad soldering or a broken resistor. Anyway, for any poor programmer, here is something you can have a look at: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=498789 /Per PS: I did pursue that issue with the OOO folks, but it kind of stranded on me having to run very, very fresh code in production. I'm still thinking about it. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (0.0°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
