--- Comment #4 from afunk...@ig.com.br 2012-03-25 08:53:56 PDT ---
Further investigating this issue in the issues "solved" in 3.4.5, I found some
interesting bug reports ("closed") including:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43868
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40006
Most interesting is comment 7 from the later:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40006#c7
I've tested it and found a workaround to current issue:
1. Launch LO 3.5.1 (or 3.4.5/3.4.6)
2. Tools -> Options -> Load/Save -> General -> ODF Format version -> (change to
1.0/1.1)
3. Open password-protected Openoffice 1.0 spreadsheet created in previous
versions of LO 3.x or OpenOffice 3.x, or create a brand new one (with a
password).
4. Modify some data
5. Click on save icon (or File -> Save)
File is now saved (not prompting for the previously established password).
6. Close file
7. Try to open the file from any version of LO 3.x or OO 3.x.
It now opens fine with the correct password.
In summary:
1. A decision has been made by the developers to change encryption algorithm
(to AES?) which explicitly makes files saved with a password from 3.4.5 and
later versions of LO incompatible with older versions of LO or OO.org.
2. A workaround has been previously suggested (but apparently not included in
the Release Notes or "Known Issues" - Developers, could you do this?) to change
ODF version from 1.2 Extended (recommended) to 1.0/1.1 prior to saving ODF
files or OO 1.0 files with a password to make them backward compatible with
older versions of LO (prior to 3.4.5) or OO.org
3. Openoffice 1.0 export filters in 3.4.5, 3.4.6 and 3.5.1 are "unaware" of the
update and save the encrypted file with newer encryption method (AES?) but
older ODF format (1.0/1.1 ?!) making FILEOPEN impossible for ANY version of LO
or OO...
Hope this additional enables this bug to be included in the "easy tasks"
list... (just kidding?).
BTW - I'm NOT a developer, please HELP!!!!
