Bug#350796: openoffice.org-common: sensible-ooomua requires python2.4
Package: openoffice.org-common
Version: 2.0.0-5
Severity: normal
Hi,
Trying to send e-mail attachments via sensible-ooomua is broken on etch.
The Python script sensible-ooomua requires the 'subprocess' module
which is only available in Python 2.4 (as far as I can see). In a default
etch environment Python 2.3 will be used and the script will fail. (I
couldn't determine for sure if the subprocess module is available in
an extra package for Python 2.3 in which case openoffice.org-common is just
missing a dependency).
Additionally I tried changing the symlink /usr/bin/python to python2.4 but
still couldn't get sending mails to work. OpenOffice complained
'Unsupported mail client: sensible-ooomua'. Maybe my Python 2.4
configuration wasn't properly set up... Replacing sensible-ooomua by
kmail in the OpenOffice internet options and then sending mail
worked fine.
Best wishes,
Martin.
