Hi,
I’m happy to announce that OpenOffice.org 3.0.0.3.1 packages are available in
the Build Service OpenOffice:org:UNSTABLE project. They are the first release
candidate of the OpenOffice.org 3.0 version.
We kindly ask for testing. Please, try and report bugs.
Note: They might still include bugs and are not intended for data-critical
usage. A good practice is to archive any important data before an use, ...
Where to get it:
The list of installation repositories can be found at
http://en.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories#OpenOffice.org_UNSTABLE
Installation problems:
There are some problems with the version update on older distributions. You
might need to select the right version by hand, see
http://en.opensuse.org/OpenOffice#Dependencies_During_Update
IMPORTANT
The packages with localizations are renamed from OpenOffice_org-<lang> to
OpenOffice_org-l10n-<lang>. Also the localized help content is split into the
optional OpenOffice_org-help-<lang> packages. Finally, the American
localization is split into extra packages OpenOffice_org-l10n-en-US and
OpenOffice_org-help-en-US.
We are sorry, the 64-bit packages are not available for SLED10 and
openSUSE-10.2. You could install the 32-bit (i586) packages there.
We hope to solve the build problems within the following weeks.
Bug reports:
Please report the bugs into https://bugzilla.novell.com/ for the
product "OpenOffice_org 2.0". Do not forget to mention enough information
about the problem, see http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:OOo.
Changes in this version:
The GO-OO project changes are listed at
http://svn.gnome.org/svn/ooo-build/tags/OOO_BUILD_3_0_0_3_1/NEWS
General information about the build:
The build is based on the GO-OO project. It includes lots bug fixes, features
and optimizations in compare with the regular OpenOffice.org build:
* better startup performance
* improved VBA interoperability
* improved import filters (OOXML, WordPerfect)
* additional import filters (SVG, WordPerfect Graphics, Microsoft
Works, ...)
* native KDE Open/Save dialog
* WebDAV locking
