------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Aug 26 07:59:58 +0000 2008 ------- It occurs to me that my last post was rather severely verbose, so I've decided to provide a streamlined version for those who don't want to wade through all that text: The 3.0 installation process, as it currently stands, is unnecesarily confusing and is even likely to result in having two versions of OpenOffice unintentionally (and rather awkwardly) mixed together in the same subdirectory structure. You can see my previous post for details, but the key problem is that the installer incorrectly shows "c:\Program Files" as the installation directory while actually placing the program's files in two hardwired directories under the installation directory. Specificly, the current installation process places the three parts of OpenOffice in these locations: "<INSTALLDIR>\OpenOffice.org\Basis 3.0" "<INSTALLDIR>\OpenOffice.org\URE" "<INSTALLDIR>\OpenOffice.org 3" where, as I said, INSTALLDIR defaults to "c:\Program Files". The problems with the installation process could be solved if the default installation directory were changed to "C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 3" and the actual install locations were either "c:\Program Files\Common Files\OpenOffice.org\Basis 3.0" "c:\Program Files\Common Files\OpenOffice.org\URE" "<INSTALLDIR>" or "<INSTALLDIR>\Basis 3.0" "<INSTALLDIR>\URE" "<INSTALLDIR>\brand" with the deciding factor between those two options being whether the Basis and URE directories were meant to be shared between multiple programs or not. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
