Sarge Testing and OpenOffice 1.1.3
Hello!
I had several issues with tabbed panes with Debian OpenOffice installations.
These always happen when I have a dialog open with multiple tabbed choices (like
when editing a standard format when in Writer, and then selecting alignment, or
when selecting a data in a Calc graph to change its area color), and often when
I select one I get an "Unrecoverable error", and OO closes. Every time I do the
same combination of actions for the same element, I can reproduce the error
after that.
When I used the binary x86 package from the OO site (1.1.3) I don't have the
problem at all.
It is just my little-informed impression, but OO 1.1.3 seems much more stable
than 1.1.2. Wouldn't it be better to use the 1.1.3 release as a base instead of
1.1.2 and snapshoting it to -4 or -4+1 ?
It is only an impression, but the 1.1.2 seems to be a "bad" release, or maybe
there is a regression in it, but 1.1.3 seems actually more stable, and being
conservative about upgrading the testing version seems to do more harm than good.
I'd really wish I could throw out that local install and return to a Debian
version with continuous upgrades.
Thanks, and with kind regards,
Oliver Korpilla
