No-one from the Debian team has looked at it, and we haven't modified anything there. The only modifications are in the patch 906_set_gnome_menu_right.diff for the categories. > >If you are not prepared to work on patches, be prepared to wait for someone > >who is. > It's not about having to be prepared to submit patches or not, but to > have no answer at all submitting bug reports... Your questions were directed at parts of OOo that have not been modified by the team (except the categories) and no-one who reads the list felt they knew enough about to provide you with a answer and left it for someone else to answer. In the meantime there was conversation about the Gnome categories going on in the bug report so I didn't see the need spend time repeating that to you. Now the patch is in the packages and you say there are still problems so I'm responding, although I still haven't had time to look at it myself. But if you're willing to look at this yourself I will do my best to point you in the right direction. If you only have limited time to look at these problems, it might be best for you to look at 1.1 first and see if things are better there, and only spend time on it if it hasn't been improved in 1.1 already. The easiest way to do that is probably to look in the CVS logs of gnomeint to see what has changed [1]. The version in 1.0.x is on the branch OOO_STABLE_1 and the HEAD branch will become 1.1. You could try doing a Bonsai query (http://ooo.ximian.com) for changes to the file gnomeint on all branches. I also find that the Log Browse tool of tkcvs (apt-get install tkcvs) is very helpful to visualise how the different versions on different branches correspond to each other. http://tools.openoffice.org has information on accessing CVS and descriptions of the branches.
