[announce] Openoffice 1.9.62 .debs
I have put up a set of .debs of the upcoming OpenOffice.org 2.0 version here: http://people.debian.org/~halls/openoffice/test/ooo1.9-java/ These are .debs generated by the new openoffice 'native installer' system, and are not of the same quality or caliber as Debian users would normaly expect to see. In particular: * There are no proper package Dependencies as there is no support in the upstream build system for these at the moment. I built these on a mostly Sarge system with mostly internal libraries. * pkgcheck gives some errors about *.dpkg-tmp when installing/upgrading. Just ignore them, and this step is going to be removed from the postinstall scripts soon anyway. * There is no system integration - menu entries or scripts in /usr/bin. Start OOo with /opt/openoffice1.9.62/program/soffice I hardcoded the package generation routine to generate .debs instead of .rpm. This will change in the future when the installer generation script has been changed to accept a format flag. There is a diff of the changes I made to generate the .diffs here: http://people.debian.org/~halls/openoffice/test/ooo1.9-java/m62_generate_debs.diff If you encounter problems with the resulting build, please file bug reports in OOo's upstream issuezilla. And, if anyone has time to help us, I'd really appreciate it if we could have some help in testing the bugs filed in the Debian bug tracker, to see if they have already been fixed in the 1.9x builds: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=maintdata=debian-openoffice%40lists.debian.orgarchive=nopend-exc=forwardedpend-exc=pending-fixedpend-exc=fixedpend-exc=donesev-exc=criticalsev-exc=gravesev-exc=serioussev-exc=importantsev-exc=wishlistsev-exc=fixedexclude=woodyexclude=moreinfoexclude=pending You can find me or Rene on irc.debian.org, in channel #debian-oo.

My locales that I compiled into my kernel we show up in dpkg-reconfigure locales are: I don't think that has anything to do with it.

Not sure if that matters, but thought I'd mention it. No, we're talking about the user interface font which is name UI_SANS. LATIN_DISPLAY is used for something else. It would be helpful for us if you could find out which font OOo is using on your system. Which is the first font in this list that OOo has available in its list of fonts? I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this question. Do you mean of the fonts listed in my VCL.xcu file under prop oor:name=UI_SAN, what is the first font that I have available on my system for OO to use? Well, yes, except I meant specificly from within OOo. I.e. open the Format-Character menu item and look through the list of fonts you see there. I think this list will be the same as the list you get from the 'fc-list' command, which lists all of the fontconfig fonts available, but I haven't verified it. If so, I have found that I have Andale Mono, but not specifically Andale Sans UI per se. To be honest, when it comes to playing with fonts in Linux/Debian, I haven't learned the ropes yet. They don't seem to be just in one place and there seems to be at least a couple of different config type programs for them. I'm not complaining as having lots of flexibility with fonts is a good thing, but I just have figured it out yet nor have I found anything comprehensive that covers the topic well but in layman's terms. Well, it's nice of you to give the benefit of the doubt, but really this is just a pain, not knowing where all your fonts are and having to do all this manual stuff. It should all 'just work', right? Well, thankfully work is underway to improve the situation, and that is where fontconfig comes in. Apps that use the fontconfig library all get their fonts in the same way, and you just have to drop the font in your ~/.fonts or /usr/local/share/fonts difectory, and the rest is done for you. The Debian OOo packages use fontconfig. One way to work around the problem is to add a font substitution for 'Andale Sans UI' to map to a font that you have - then OOo will always pick that font for the menus. This sounds promising, but I've no idea about how to add a font substitition. Is that with defoma, or fonts-conf, or something else? Sorry to be such a klutz in this respect, but I suspect I'm not alone when it comes to fonts. Whenever you have problems you should read the README. In fact we even print a message when you run OOo for the first time: OpenOffice.org for Debian - see /usr/share/doc/openoffice.org/README.Debian.gz That file doesn't contain random uninteresting thoughts from the package developers. It contains solutions to real world problems brought up by various users of the packages. Oh, guess what. It also tells you how to substitute your menu fonts. So GO AND READ THE README!! Even if you missed the message, you should *always* check in /usr/share/doc/packagename when you are trying to solve a problem. Before writing to the mailing list. That way, you can save the developers from having to write the same thing over and over, and they can go and fix bugs instead and help get Sarge out :) Thanks, Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: emergency: Openoffice, Fonts, what a mess
Hi Christian, On Wed, 2004-01-07 at 03:12, Christian Schnobrich wrote: today, I did the usual apt-get update apt-get upgrade on my girfriend's machine. In the process, the Openoffice backport was upgraded from 1.0.xx to 1.1.xx. This has severe side effects. I'm sorry to hear this. This particular upgrade has had a longer period of testing than most versions do, so I'm surprised that no-one else has reported this. It has been available since December 15th, and judging by the number of places I saw people talking about the 'woody-test' repo, it seems to have been downloaded and in use in quite a few places already. I moved 'woody-test' to 'woody' yesterday, so that would have caused your upgrade and subsequent problems. The font management for 1.1.0 has changed quite a bit in the testing/unstable branches and now uses the 'fontconfig' library to provide fonts. But because Woody does not have fontconfig, the backport you installed is supposed to still use the same mechanisms as before to find fonts and you should not have noticed a difference. So you have the options of downgrading the packages or fixing the problem. If you are able to contact me directly it might be quickest to fix the problem. You can reach us on IRC, server irc.freenodenet, channel #debian-oo. Otherwise a downgrade will probably take longer but be safer than spending hours trying to work around the problem. I do have a few suggestions further down, though. Downgrading --- I kept the old packages on the master server, so I have recreated the repository as it was before the upgrade for you, and named it woody-old. Judging by your mail headers you are in Germany, so use the freenet.de server, which I have been updating while writing this mail. Change your openoffice line in sources.list to read: deb http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/debian-openoffice/ woody-old main contrib and run apt-get update. Apt will _not_ downgrade OOo automatically, so you'll need to do it by hand. You need to downgrade at least these packages: openoffice.org, openoffice.org-bin, openoffice.org-l10-[language], where I guess you'll have -en or -de installed, and openoffice.org-debian-files. Downgrades are not tested so you might find it easiest to remove the packages first and then reinstall. The backport does not require newer versions of libraries, so you should find that you can downgrade OOo without needing to change versions of anything else. Also, you may find that the upgraded user settings do not work properly or cause problems - if things still look wrong trying moving ~/.sversionrc and ~/.openoffice somewhere else and restarting OOo, which will reset the user settings back to their defaults. My own approach to the problem will be to install as many fonts as I can in the hope that things will be in order once the fonts she originally used are available again. However, I don't know where to get them other than by picking packages through aptitude. I think I installed everything that seemed appropriate for western europe, but I'll look again after this is sent. My guess would be that it is not missing fonts that is the problem, but instead that OOo is no longer finding your already-installed fonts. In the meantime, she'll start going over her files manually. She says the fonts she used were Times and Symbol. IIRC, those were from Microsoft. You should be able to find out which fonts she had by moving the cursor over the text, and looking at the font name. If she was really using Times and Symbol, those are not fonts from Microsoft (MS have Times New Roman and Wingdings), and they are bitmapped fonts, which are very poor quality and not suitable for presentation work. If that really is the case, you might find that you can use the 'font substitution' feature to substitute Times New Roman for Times. Someday, I had a package that downloaded them. I don't even know which package that was, or why they now seem to be gone. It is msttcorefonts, and they should be available to OOo as long as you have x-ttcidfont-conf installed too.

On 1.1 at least there is a checkbox 'Text only' on the page 'Select button style'. The buttons then appear as text - you could try that. I'm running OOo 1.0.3 - if there is an apt source for a newer rev in the testing distribution, let me know!!! We've only just uploaded 1.1rc to unstable, and it is sitting waiting for manual processing. You could try installing it from the 'unstable' section of our repository, although you'll need to upgrade a few libraries to the unstable version: http://openoffice.debian.net/mirrors.html So, they are compressed gifs, and there must be some library that all these different apps (the viewers, galeon, gimp) depend on and it got upgraded and . . . . OK - I get it now. OOo doesn't use a library - the patented source is directly in OOo, and I had to remove it before uploading the sources to Debian. Chris pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

It wouldn't help you to compile OOo from scratch - it will waste a lot of time and I optimise the packages for Pentium Pro later, since the majority of users have these class processors. Although OOo is a memory hog, it is actually mostly the startup time that is annoying, so just keeping one window open somewhere or other will keep it in memory (or swapped out on your swap partition) and prevent the long startup times.

Backing up those two directories is all you need. There are some indexes in 'hidden' directories, but those are under /var/cache/apt-proxy/backend. So backing up those two trees should be all you need. One thing to note: apt-proxy uses the last access time (atime) of the files to determine when they should be cleaned up. If your backup/restore does not save those (e.g. tar does not, star can save them), you may find that some files stay around for longer than you expect.

File locking in Openoffice.org (was Re: Running script on logout from KDE)

You might like to try using OpenOffice.org's locking, provided that you do not use Solaris with the NFS share. From the README: --- File Locking In the default setting, file locking is turned off in OpenOffice.org. To activate it, you have to set th e appropriate environment variables SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1 and export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING. These entries are already in disabled form in the soffice script file. Warning: The activated file locking feature can cause problems with Solaris 2.5.1 and 2.7 used in conjun ction with Linux NFS 2.0. If your system environment has these parameters, we strongly recommend that yo u avoid using the file locking feature. Otherwise, OpenOffice.org will hang when you try to open a file from a NFS mounted directory from a Linux computer. --- You can turn file locking on by editing the soffice script file, or if you are using the Debian packages, like this: su echo 'export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1' /etc/openoffice/openoffice.conf This method will survive package updates. You need to enable file locking on each client machine I guess. Please let us know if that works - I have not had any reports back so far from people using the file locking.

[announce] openoffice.org 1.0.1-4 uploaded and ftp.vpn-junkies.de is depreciated
Hi all, Several people complained about the files in /etc/openoffice disappearing - it seems that 1.0.1-3 had duplicate entries which caused the files to be deleted somehow, so I've uploaded -4 which fixes that. I'm really hoping now that I can push this version into the 'testing' archive, so everyone is using 1.0.1. The owner of ftp.vpn-junkies.de is going to make this mirror only accessible to other mirrors, and I have already mailed the mirror owners with details needed. He has arranged for ftp.freenet.de to mirror our packages; they have even more bandwidth/availability than ftp.vpn-junkies.de, so there should be no problems there. People who have been using vpn-junkies in their sources.list need to change their deb lines to: - testing package - deb http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/ftp.vpn-junkies.de/openoffice/ testing main contrib - unstable package - deb http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/ftp.vpn-junkies.de/openoffice/ unstable main contrib For mirrors in the rest of the world, see: http://www.linux-debian.de/openoffice/mirrors.html Here is the changelog for 1.0.1-4.

The file that is requested is actually a link to the file in pool, and the rsync command that apt-proxy uses copies the link instead of the file. You have a couple of options: * Update apt-proxy to 1.3.2, which fixes the bug, and is mainly bug fixes, so a good idea anyway * Switch your backend to http instead of rsync.

The OpenOffice.org packages current on http://www.linux-debian.de/openoffice installed fine on my woody systemalthough I may have grabbed some packages from sid as necessary. These were the extra packages that were installed upon apt-get install openoffice.org, with lines in sources.list for the UK mirror of the OOo debian mirror and for sid: libfreetype6 libgcc1 These two libs are the problem - if you build on sid, the dependencies generated mean you have to get the sid versions of these packages. Now, I have copied these two .debs in to the openoffice mirror, so Woody users do get a seemless install now, but those two libs are not Woody versions. Gerard is trying to produce a package that will install and depend only on packages from Woody. The package that had to have a fix backported was debhelper (there was a bug in dh_install that was fixed in 4.0.9). libstlport4.5gcc3 This is libstlport4.5 that has been compiled with gcc3 and is binary incompatible with the package in Woody. The soname of the library needs changing so it can coexist with libstlport4.5. Chris pgpff8J0rZnVy.pgp Description: PGP signature

Upstream do builds on machines with custom sets of packages installed, which is why they do not have the same problem. Their precompiled version is installable on Potato, so you may like to try that out. If you're wondering why I haven't tried creating Potato packages, it is because I would need 10 Gig of disk space and 10 hours of build time. $ df -H FilesystemSize Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda5 17G 14G 3.1G 81% / Gerfried Fuchs has been attempting to build OOo packages on Woody, but there, one of the build dependencies for our package was too buggy and we had to backport a fix.

Re: apt-proxy 111 connection refused

A quote from the README: Q: A connection cannot be established with apt-proxy on a remote machine. Nothing appears in the apt-proxy.log file. A: apt-proxy is run by tcpd, which may deny connections depending on how it is set up. If a connection is denied by tcpd, you will find a log message in /var/log/daemon.log such as: apt-proxy[]: refused connect from hostname You should check /etc/hosts.allow and hosts.deny. For example, the standard ALL: PARANOID in /etc/hosts.deny will deny acess to clients whose hostname cannot be looked up. HTH, Chris pgpjuN2a64kM8.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: Foreign Language with OpenOffice?

Do I use the standard OpenOffice (English version) that I already have and just do something with locales or with kbd or something? Or do I download a special German version of OO? If the latter, does that mean the faculty will have to keep three or four instances of OO running at any one time? One for English, one for German, one for French, etc? Sorry I'm so ignorant of working with different languages. About the user interface language: The offical versions are completely seperate and you are expected to have a complete openoffice tree for every user interface language, and I don't know of any plans to improve that. With the Debian packages, Martin Quinson has come up with a way of having more than more user interface available. The principle is, you copy the language files in program/resource from each language's installation set into the installed tree under program/resource. Then, you can configure OpenOffice to use a particular language by tweaking the XML configuration file in the user's workstation install directory. I guess you could do a similar thing under Windows, too. Ok, this is nice but what about the user interface, I've seen that the are several languages for OpenOffice.org Debian packages, so that may be a solution if it fits your environment Yes, we introduced that in -4, although -5 should be much better for this (not yet uploaded) (i.e. if you are running unstable (I think it also runs on testing with few extra packages from unstable) To be precise, you need to install just libgcc1 from unstable. , however I haven't tried them and I don't know about if you can configure the language for each individual user. Does anyone know about this? In -4, no. In -5, yes - the language is selected according to the user's locale(1). Chris pgp58rY17l5jX.pgp Description: PGP signature

If you are able to reliably make OOo crash, it would help us you could report how to reproduce the problem to the issuezilla at openoffice.org, if it has not already been looked at. That should help improve the quality of the next release. If a fix is reasonably small, we can apply patches to the next version of the .debs, too.
