Bug#501721: /usr/bin/ooffice: ooffice fails to start: syntax error
Package: openoffice.org-common
Version: 1:2.4.1-10
Severity: grave
File: /usr/bin/ooffice
Justification: renders package unusable
$ ooffice
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice: line 367: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice: line 367: `fi'
It looks like there is a 'fi' where there should be a done:
# test for availability of the fast external splash
for arg in $@; do
if [ "$arg" = "-nologo" -o "$arg" = "-no-oosplash" ]; then
no_oosplash=y
fi
fi
if [ "$sd_binary" = "soffice.bin" -a -x "$sd_prog/oosplash.bin" ] && [ "$no_oosplash" != "y" ] ; then
sd_binary="oosplash.bin"
fi
Probably should be:
# test for availability of the fast external splash
for arg in $@; do
if [ "$arg" = "-nologo" -o "$arg" = "-no-oosplash" ]; then
no_oosplash=y
fi
done
if [ "$sd_binary" = "soffice.bin" -a -x "$sd_prog/oosplash.bin" ] && [ "$no_oosplash" != "y" ] ; then
sd_binary="oosplash.bin"
fi
With this change, OOo starts OK.
