Hi Michael, Caolàn, all,

What is everyone's preference for reporting ?

I'm guessing from Caolàn's reply that most would not prefer the mailing
list to be inundated with such reports. I'm perfectly happy to enter fdo
reports, but I fear they will go unnoticed if I just leave them as
"unspecified". Could we not have a "nightly" tag ? Or if we do that, are
we going to have tag overkill like we did with OOo ?

I have no particular preference either way, and will just go with the
flow on this one.

So - first I'm excited that we're getting some testing on master - that
is dead helpful; and of course regression bugs are interesting and
perhaps useful on the mailing list too.

I too am annoyed by the ongoing scripting extension problems, will try
to look at that later, at least on Linux.

Thanks,

Michael.

Sure, but the crucial bit for dailies to prove their worth is

a) it worked on Monday's daily
b) it failed on Tuesday's daily

and you were comparing to 3.4.X so its unclear if the regression was
actually fresh in the daily you tested, or in some one earlier. The
ideal scenario is that you can zoom back to the earliest daily available
and test that and its ok, then bisect the dates and take a daily half
way from success to failure, test that one and so on to binary search
down to the day where it went wrong, at which point inspecting the
commit logs manually, or dev-level bisecting, finds the evil-doer.

if the issue of "no tag" is no version option to select in bugzilla,
then leave it "unspecified"

LOL ;-) If only I had 5 brains, 6 pairs of hands and a time machine or a
parallel universe creator, I might just be able to :-)))

The only reason I'm posting on the dev list is because there is no tag
on fdo.

The only reason I'm testing the nightly builds is because I was under
the impression that it was needed so that the devs get feedback as
quickly as possible.

Between last night and this morning, it has taken me about an hour and a
half to try and find out how to get reproducible behaviour, and report
it. Software testing is not my full-time activity, I have a completely
unrelated business to run which happens to enable to me to eat, drink
and occasionally be merry  ;-), but in return, I have to put the work in
as does anyone else with a job :-)

And from my limited experience with it, valgrind sucks on Mac OSX, it
doesn't like child windows requiring user interaction :-/

OK, nightly build from 28/06 :

so now it seems I have nailed this down a bit more :

1) Start LibreOffice
2) Drag an extension from a Finder folder to the main application window.
3) The Extensions Manager window is displayed behind the other windows
on the desktop, it does not have the focus.
4) Install the extension, close the Extension Manager window.
5) Drag another extension from a Finder folder onto the the LibreOffice
main app window - no Extension Manager is displayed, it is completely
hidden.
6) Close LibreOffice completely, then restart.
7) Drag an extension from a Finder folder onto the main application window.
8) The behaviour in point (3) is shown.

So it looks like we have a rogue Extensions Manager window that can only
be instantiated once, and then refuses to be called anymore on
subsequent attempts.

although the Extension Manager screen does not get displayed in the

header accordingly.

Drag and drop also works if the extension is dropped onto the App icon
in the Dock. This then launches the Extension Manager and proposes
installation of the extension.

[Libreoffice] Extension manager does not start when dragging extensions from Finder onto main app window - build 350m1 from master nightly 27/06/2011 for Mac OSX

2011-06-27 Thread Alexander Thurgood
So testing, testing, 1..2..3... ;-)

In 3.3.x and 3.4.x you can drag and drop extensions from the Mac OSX
Finder onto the LibreOffice main application window and it will launch
the Extensions Manager.

This no longer works in the nightly build from yesterday.
