Bug#243659: openoffice.org: openoffice 1st time startup is extremely slow with large amount of fonts
Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1.1.0+1.1.1rc3-1
Severity: normal
All openoffice programs are extremely slow the first time you start it
after installing a large amount of true type fonts:
I installed some 1000 truetype fonts in /usr/local/share/fonts/truetype
and started oodraw and nothing seems to happen.
Only after a couple of minutes (>5) the splash screen appeared.
The next time I started oodraw, the splash screen appeared after a few
seconds.
It seems to me openoffice is reading/checking/caching/whatever the newly
installed fonts. Which is not the problem, but there is no indication
what so ever oodraw is really running and busy doing something.
A message would be nice telling openoffice is reading the fonts...
The same problem appears with 1.1.1.
(after installing the fonts I thought oodraw doesn't run anymore so I
tried another version, all with the same problem)
