------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jan 18 09:31:52 -0800 2006 ------- Hi, I do not have a error report, but it's obvious that if user does not have write access to the application directory, it is not possible to run DicOOo successfully. ... Well, from security point of view, regular user should NOT be allowed to write to application directory, which in many cases is located within system directories (and not in user's directory). Some administrators may enforce this as a security measure. So it can be said that it is NOT GUARANTEED that a user can write to the application directory. Second, it is more logical and consistent, if all (or at least most) user actions affect only user's own settings, not the system settings. This also allows user's to have different configurations from each other (including dictionaries and fonts). System settings changing should be a special case, visibly alerted as such and REQUIRE system password. Third, all users should have the possibility to get dictionaries. Current way discriminates those people, who do not have write access to application directory and are not administrators. Fourth, shareable dictionaries are still possible, but this is administrators job. It is not a job for DicOOo wizard, that is in the user visible UI. If we want, we can of course have also DicOOo-admin -file, but that should NOT be in user UI, but in some admin UI or as a documented additional file in the application directory. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
