Re: [gentoo-user] oocalc document always needs recovery when opened

2008-12-23 Thread Mark David Dumlao
A very very quick fix: rename or move your ~/.openoffice directory and
openoffice should start out with fresh everything. I don't know how
openoffice handles backups and caching though, so if you'd like to
preserve your settings maybe you could look into the subfolders there
and see if the backuped/cached document is there somewhere.

That did indeed make the problem go away. I considered comparing the old and 
new directories to find the incorrect setting, but decided not to - there was 
nothing special configured there that I can't easily redo.

I too have had that problem and decided to look for the issue. 
Unfortunately I haven't found anything.  When  I get back home I might
try to figure this out...
