[openFATE 311353] Move libvclplug_kde4lx.so library to libreoffice-kde4 package
Feature changed by: Hendrik Vogelsang (hennevogel)
Feature #311353, revision 3
Title: Move libvclplug_kde4lx.so library to libreoffice-kde4 package

- openSUSE.org: Unconfirmed
+ openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed
Priority
- Requester: Important
+ Requester: Neutral

Requested by: Ricardo Gabriel Berlasso (rgbsuse)
Partner organization: openSUSE.org

Description:
kde4 integration on openSUSE's LibO version is still problematic, so
many kde users (including myself) prefer to not use kde integration at
all instead of fighting problems generated by that integration (which
as a mater of fact, it is not enabled on upstream LibO). But
uninstalling libreoffice-kde4 package is not enough: the library(1)
libvclplug_kde4lx.so must be deleted or renamed, something that must be
done on EVERY LibO update. Moving libvclplug_kde4lx.so library from
libreoffice-libs-gui to libreoffice-kde4 will easy LibO setup for kde
users that do not want to use kde4 integration.
(1) located at /usr/lib64/libreoffice/basis-link/program/ on 64 bits
systems.

Use Case:
People with problems like bug 674806 (there are many others) that do
not want to use kde4 integration but are afraid of using rm command on
a system folder will see this as an enhancement.

Business case (Partner benefit):
openSUSE.org: Not all kde4 users are happy with the kde4 integration
enabled on openSUSE's LibO version, but there is no straightforward way
of disabling it. In order to not ask unhappy users to perform dangerous
operations as root (after all, rm is a dangerous command), to gather
every LibO's kde4 related library on the same package will give the
user more options.
