Bug#217333: oopadmin: Cannot import printers or save them

[Craig Small <csmall@small.dropbear.id.au>]

Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1.1.0-1
Severity: minor

OK, you've got some minor annoying problems with oopadmin.

Start off with a new computer with no openoffice previously installed.

As a normal user, start oopadmin.
  - Attempting to import a new printer type seems to work, but the
    printer does not appear in the list of printer types.
  - After creating the printers and clicking close if you start oopadmin
    the printers are no longer there.
Root can add new printer types.

The fix is to start openoffice, which says it is running the setup
program but seems bring up the usual window, close it down then
re-run oopadmin.  It all works fine then.

I think oopadmin should at least complain if it attempts to write a
printer type or printer setup and fails, silently ignoring the user
is a bit annoying.
