Finally, they are out!
The main highlight of these packages is a split, and additional user
interface language support. Dictionaries are not yet included. Many thanks
to Martin Quinson for his language contributions, and John Cooper for the
menu entries.
There will not be a -4 for the powerpc architecture, because Jan is in the
middle of a transition to gcc 3.1.
The .debs are up on mx1.ru and ftp.vpn-junkies.de. Not all lanugages have
finished uploading yet (there are 18!), and the French and Norwegian mirrors
will sync within 24 hours. List of mirrors:
http://www.linux-debian.de/openoffice/mirrors.html
The menu entries now automatically run setup if the user has not yet used
OOo before. The spadmin entry does not work under KDE, and possibly other
window managers. Please use this in the meantime:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/openoffice/program /usr/lib/openoffice/program/spadmin.bin
Here is the changelog:
openoffice.org (1.0.0-4) experimental; urgency=low
* John M Cooper:
- Add Debian menu entries
* Jan-Hendrik Palic:
- Update JDK home directory for PPC
* Chris Halls:
- Fix mime support (update-mime was not called in postinst)
- Build foreign languages
- Split off architecture-dependent files into openoffice.org-bin
package and depend on it. This package will not need to be updated as
frequently as the main openoffice.org package.
- Remove workaround for libstdc in rules, because patch
902_remove_libstdc_from_scp solves the problem.
- Use dh_install instead of dh_movefiles. Build-depend on debhelper >=
4.0.9 because of a problem with globbing with dh_install
- Build-depend on perl-base because perl is used in some scripts
- Add instsetoo target to recreate install sets
- Update README.Debian and TODO
- Workaround for issue #4494: unset SESSION_MANAGER if session manager is
gnome-session
- Make Menu entries use openoffice wrapper. spadmin can be run from the
menu and setup is removed from the menu.
* Patches copied from Gwenole Beauchesne at Mandrake:
- 015_setup_oognomeappmath: fix error message on user setup
- 016_fontcache_copy_weight: Fix bug in font cache (font when printed
appear bold etc, IZ #4366)
- 902_remove_libstdc_from_scp.diff: also remove libgcc_s.so from .deb
* Martin Quinson:
- Foreign language support!
- Generate multiple packages and control file for lanaguage support
automatically.
- Adapt openoffice-xlate-lang and openoffice-dpack-lang from Mandrake's
packages
Have fun,
Chris
