Description: high-quality office productivity suite
OpenOffice.org is a full-featured office productivity suite that provides
a near drop-in replacement for Microsoft(R) Office.

Attached you will find a error report generated by apt. It basically
says that it can't configure Open Office because the
update-openoffice-dicts program is missing and then skips the whole
setup. Installing the www.openoffice.org version first and then
installing the Debian version over it offers a work-around.
BUG TWO - No italic in serif fonts
This, unfortunatly, creates another bug, which i also report here. If
you wish to receive two seperate reports, send an e-mail, please.
At least if you use the above mentioned work-around, Open Office looses
the ability to display serif fonts (like Nimbus Roman, URW Bookman - i
know about the Vera Serif lack of an italic font, which, btw, makes them
almost totally useless) in italic/oblique. Sans Serif fonts work without
a flaw. In Abiword everything works like expected. I am stumped.
I use the stock Debian SID packages of Gnome 2.4.1, XFree86 4.2.1 and
Freetype 2.1.7. The only self-compiled package is Ghostscript in version
7.07, which is necessary to use my Brother GDI Laserprinter.
Kind regards,
Björn
