Thu Jun 2 08:53:49 UTC 2016 - tchvatal@suse.com - Version update to 5.2.0.0.beta1: * Disable bundled help and point to upstream wiki always (speeds up build quite a bit) I don't think that reduced build time is a good reason to drop libreoffice help and cripple the whole suite. The upstream wiki is tutorial how to use help, but completely useless without the real help. Other distros like Arch without the backing of a company _can_ afford the extra build time. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

If record fast compilation times in OBS are more important than the needs of the users, obviously something in openSUSE's philosophy is fundamentally wrong. To me that means and after more than 15 years of using (open)SUSE as my main OS:
Bye bye, welcome Debian!
We are talking about 2 hours of rendering documentation that is 1:1 verbatim on the wiki that gets launched from your suite (albeit it is not a help window but rather browser tab). I do not see any of you providing submission enabling back the documentation build for your purposes. I don't consider it a bug, esp. since I and the SUSE customers are quite happy with the web version as well. This is a community effort where one should be fixing his own scratch, feel free to provide a submission that makes the internal documentation build up to your needs again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I don't see why it should be the duty of community members to restore functionality intentionally removed by the maintainer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Please, do consider the situation where internet access is not available. For example, I frequently use a laptop at locations where there is no internet available. The loss of local help files in such a situation is, to say the least, an inconvenience. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I also stumbled apon this issue, as i could not open the offline help on my laptop. Besides, the sofware page https://software.opensuse.org/package/libreoffice-l10n-de still claims: "German localization files for LibreOffice. The localized help content is in libreoffice-help-de." But there ist no package libreoffice-help.de Uncomfortably worked around by this:
mkdir /tmp/lohelp cd /tmp/lohelp wget -np -nd http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/5.4.0/rpm/x86_64/L... tar xf LibreOffice_5.4.0_Linux_x86-64_rpm_helppack_de.tar.gz rpm2cpio LibreOffice_5.4.0.3_Linux_x86-64_rpm_helppack_de/RPMS/libobasis5.4-de-help-5.4.0.3-3.x86_64.rpm | cpio -idm sudo cp -rv opt/libreoffice5.4/help/de /usr/lib64/libreoffice/help/ cd /tmp rm -rf /tmp/lohelp
Probably a new package libreoffice-fetch-help-(en|de|...) providing a download script would be a solution, if rendering the help pages on OBS lasts too long. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
