[opensuse] OOo 2.3 update
I updated to OOo2.3 using the openoffice:stable repo at opensuse.org. I use sled sp1 and now when trying to open any OOo file, i am first presented with a "filter selection" dialog with 3 choices: OO.org 1.0 chart, help content and OpenDocument chart. If i select one of those options and click "ok" it only opens what ever it is i selected (OO.org 1.0 chart, help content and OpenDocument chart). If i "cancel" that box i am presented with a "templates and documents" dialog. What happened? I can not open any OOo files. How to fix this? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I am also struggling with this update. Its giving me a mix of 2.3.0 and 2.0.4 and insists on installing a package with "devel" in the name when its from the STABLE repository. I get that templates templates dialog and the app then vanishes when finally selecting a file to open -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I saw that problem. Check your package arch. It is probably updating the main package, which is i586, but seeing you run x86_64 and trying to install the rest as x86_64. If that is correct, just go in to the packages you want to install, and specify the i586 version. Then it will install happily without the devel package. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.2 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I'm using the same mirror for all my repositories, ftp5.gwdg.de, and i'm not running a 64 bit system so it should be picking everything for i586. I've managed to get it all running now after a few forced dependency deletes (En_GB, OfficeOffice.org framework) and then readding them - all via YaST. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

thanks, i got it going eventually but it did install Java 1.4_2 as well which seemed odd as I have 1.6.0 already installed - is that version a dependency for OO? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I do not think OO base has this as a stated dependency. I am not sure which module may have this as an explicit dependency. I am trying to sort out what is in each package so I know where to look. I tried to save a file as docbook and as MS XML, and both complained that my JRE was not usable, so I should update. I have java-1_4_2-sun-1.4.2.15-1.1 installed. Anyone else see this? This is on a 10.0 system. Maybe OO expects a newer Java than is available for 10.0?
