(From your mailings it is clear that you have not removed functionality from the reference OOo or LO packages from the respective Debian package, therefore you have never been meant to be addressed.)
The accusation of "crippling" has been aimed at those who are responsible for removing functionality (= crippling) from the reference package of OOo or LO, which I regard as the "standard", the baseline of functionality. Whatever functionality the standard/reference package possesses is what professionals should be able to rely on to be available, if anyone else creates/distributes an OOo or LO package (possibly with added functionality, leaving the base line, i.e. standard/reference package, intact). Regards, ---rony P.S.: In the case of Ubuntu I would expect that they at least advertise very prominently that their OOo/LO distribution is not a standard one, but one that lacks features compared to the standard OOo/LO packages. This way, everyone would be aware of this fact and if the information was given, how to add the missing pieces ("sudo apt-get install librefoffice"), end-users would become able to upgrade the "special Ubuntu OOo/LO" to the full package on their own. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@openoffice.org with Subject: help
