Bug#275106: openoffice.org: Is it possible to get OpenOffice.org version 1.1.3 into Sarge?
Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1.1.2-4
Severity: wishlist
Hello! I'm writing with a question as to whether it's too late to get
OpenOffice 1.1.3 into Sarge. The reason for my request is that 1.1.3 finally
fixes a bug that's very important to me---the lack of kerning for Type 1
fonts---that's affected versions of OpenOffice since at least 1.1.1. This is
the type of bug that's meaningless to many people but very important to other
people. For example, I just couldn't use OpenOffice for some projects for the
last year or so because of this bug. I'd love it if I could use the official
Debian version of OpenOffice as part of Sarge and have this bug fixed.
Thanks for all your work with OpenOffice.org and Debian!
