Bug#703196: /usr/bin/ooffice: Date can no longer be formatted as the name of the day of the week only.
Package: openoffice.org-common
Version: 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze8
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/ooffice
I have an old (started on May 29, 2011) and large (765 rows by 14
columns) spreadsheet. Mosts of these rows start with the date in
format 'YYYY-MM-DD' in column A. Column B in the same row contains
'=Annn' with 'nnn' being the row number. In this spreadsheet the
format of this cell in column B is Category Date, Format Friday, the
last entry in the list presented by CTRL+1. This worked well until
today. Now OO-Calc insists that today, 2013-03-16, is a Wednesday,
while just above 2013-03-14 is correctly showns as a Thursday.
I created a new spreadsheet in an attempt to reproduce this problem in
a smaller file. Now I find that Format Friday is no longer available
for Category Date in the list presented by CTRL+1. At the same time it
*is* available in the large file mentioned above. With the Format
'Fri, Dec 31, 99', in the small file 2013-03-16 correctly formats as
'Sat, Mar 16, 13'.
Also starting today, the large file displays another problem that
cannot be reproduced in the small file. Columns D, E and F are
formatted as Category Time, Format '13:37'. Column D contains '16:39',
column E '17:14', column F '=Ennn-Cnnn'. In the large file column F
shows '00:32', in the small file it correctly shows '00:35'.
I suspect that these two mysteries must be related.
