Hi David,
It will be too late for 3.3, but could it be possible at least to add
the sys requirements for Mac and Windows on the website readme page and
keep it for the next .sdf file?
For Mac:
MacOSX 10.4 (Tiger) or higher
Intel processor
512 MB RAM
Up to 1.5 GB available hard disk space
1024 x 768 graphic device with 256 colors (higher resolution recommended)
For Windows:
Microsoft Windows 2000 (Service Pack 4 or higher), XP, Vista, or Windows 7
Pentium compatible PC (Pentium III or Athlon recommended)
256 MB RAM (512 MB RAM recommended)
Up to 1.5 GB available hard disk space --> maybe it's more, I don't know
1024x768 resolution (higher resolution recommended), at least 256 colors
Please be aware that administrator rights are needed for the
installation process
Also, are we sure that:
If you perform an administrative installation using setup /a, you need
to make sure that the file msvc90.dll is installed on the system. This
file is required for ${PRODUCTNAME} to start after an administrative
installation. You can get the file from <a
href=\"http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF\";>http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF</a>
Is not needed anymore? because I met this issue with the first version
of LibO.
Also this has been removed but I believe it should be noted somewhere
because that will brake the extensions database for the users who want
to downgrade to a OOo 3.2 version :
The Berkeley database engine has been upgraded in this version of
${PRODUCTNAME}. The database engine upgrade introduces an
incompatibility with user data for installed extensions for
${PRODUCTNAME} versions prior to 3.2 that may require your action if you
downgrade your version of ${PRODUCTNAME}.
This version of ${PRODUCTNAME} will convert your extension database to
the new Berkeley database format when extensions are installed or
removed. After this conversion, the database can no longer be read by
earlier versions of ${PRODUCTNAME}. Downgrading to an earlier version
may result in a dysfunctional installation.
If you downgrade to an earlier version of ${PRODUCTNAME}, you must
remove the user data directory <tt>{user data}/uno_packages</tt>, for
example <tt>~/.openoffice.org/3/user/uno_packages</tt>, and reinstall
all extensions.
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Sophie
