Bug#207906: openoffice.org-debian-files: /etc/openoffice/settings.debconf need to be manually created
Package: openoffice.org-debian-files
Version: 1.0.99+1.1rc3-1
Severity: normal
Upgrading from previous version (1.0.99+1.1rc1-1, if i'm right) i can't
get the binaries to be automatically prelinked, not i can resolve
purging and reinstalling the openoffice.org packages.
The problem is that /usr/bin/oooprelink checks for
/etc/openoffice/settings.debconf and call prelink only if it contains
prelink=true.
However
/usr/share/openoffice.org-debian-files/hooks/postinst.d/prelink doesn't
create /etc/openoffice/settings.debconf (it only modifies it if it
already exists), so i need to do
#echo 'prelink=true' > /etc/openoffice/settings.debconf
to actually perform the prelink on dpkg-reconfigure openoffice.org-bin.
Well it's ok to manually create the file, however reading the debconf
template i thought i was supposed to do nothing. So please modify the
hook script or clearly state the file should be created by hand.
Moreover:
king:/# dpkg-reconfigure openoffice.org-bin
Prelinking OpenOffice.org binaries... /usr/sbin/prelink:
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/msgbox-gnome: Not enough room to add
.dynamic entry
done.
[...]
I know nothing about prelinking (well, neither about linking) so i've
reported that message just for your information (don't know if it's
system dependant, if it's supposed to work so, if it's a problem
regarding prelink or openoffice.org-bin, ...). Obviously feel free
to not consider the second part of this message.
Thanks,
Gian Piero.
