Hi,

your version is, for the record? You say sid, but you have experimental in your sources.list...

Yeah, can reproduce this on both 1.0.5+LibO3.4.3-3~bpo60+1 and
1.0.5+LibO3.5.0~rc3-1 from experimental...

God, how I hate it when someone has a bug he does not report it but just post on his blog and someone only reports it months (ok, this time 1.6 months or so..) later... (needless to say, we do not patch *any* bit of that extension)

Maybe some configuration (like #616011) and/or extension registration nonsense...

I guess you don't know when this started to appear?
(I feel free to actually Cc that Steve, maybe he has more info.)

Regards,

Rene
