This bug only affects the build infrastructure, but I propose it as a

Unless the build process starts completely clean (and it didn't as of
the 3.4.0 builds), the build would reuse an older, cached, version of
the extension even if a newer one was specified in extensions.lst
I can see a benefit for the source release but not very critical. But
don't see the demand for our binary release because we can easy check it.
If the build system has been improved and binary builds provided by the
project are now fine (in OpenOffice 3.4.0 the build system did not
cleanup previously downloaded extensions, resulting in the Spanish and
Italian dictionaries not being updated), it's of course OK for me. What
I'd like to ensure is just that this doesn't happen with the current
build process, otherwise it might be better to backport the fix.
If somebody volunteers to include, built and test it for 3.4.1 then I
would support it.
Any volunteer?
I might have a look, but only in the pre-build phase (which should be
enough: you don't need to fully build the office to check what version
of the extension is downloaded).
Regards,
Andrea.
