Bug#604471: libreoffice: Malayalam Rendering issue (probably icu related)
Package: libreoffice
Version: 1:3.3.0~beta3-2
Severity: normal
This is same issue as at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=591615
Which was reported against OpenOffice.org.
Red Hat's version has it too (and there is a patch too on that BTS):-
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=654200
Reporting against LibreOffice because this seems to be a problem
with how _Debian_ is using ICU in LibreOffice / OO.o.
Also, TDF's (or is it just "DF" for Document FOundation?) version
does not have the problem.
I am using both versions of LibreOffice - from the debian
repository as well as the build from The Document Foundation.
The rendering issue exists only on the version from Debian
repository.
Verified by opening same file by same user same same configuration
files in the same user's home directory using both Debian's version
and TDF's build of LibreOffice.
