I had two entries, one with lenny main non-free, one with experimental.
I made that into one entry (and added contrib) and it's getting everything now.
Well, except that dmm mirror I listed, but I changed to the
debian-multimedia.org one, and added the pub key,
and now that's working, too.

I wrote my own script and tucked it into /usr/local/bin
(basically cd /opt/liberoffice/program ./soffice)
but no such script was installed when I installed the debs.

It's working now.
I think I explained in another thread.
I had copied my entire /home from my old machine,
an x85 32bit celeron, and something in the ~/.libreoffice dir
didn't agree with the amd64 version.
I figured that out, deleted said dir, reinstalled, and all is good.

That is also what I used, and it works fine for me (on Ubuntu 10.10).

You mentioned that it installs into /opt (which is does for me, too),
but you are running soffice - do you have a libreoffice executable in
your path (s/b in /usr/bin) and have you tried that?  It's a shell
script that sets up the proper execution environment to run
/opt/libreoffice/program/soffice (which is also a shell script that
runs the soffice.bin executable).

If this is not how you're running LO, something else may be wrong with
your installation that is beyond my scope of involvement.

HTH.

[libreoffice-users] LO in Linux Distros

2011-01-10 Thread Phil Thane
Thanks to everyone who has responded. 

Next time there is a 'slow news' week - or I'm too busy to go looking for news 
I'll mention all the distros you have all referred to.

Personally I use OO in Kubuntu, looking forward to LO being in the next 
(K)ubuntu release. Hopefully.

There will be a couple of packagers on Mageia working on the LibO rpm. 
Not sure if it will displace OOo as LibO is still not in final version 
and Mageia is still in the works, but yes, a couple of people have 
express interest in packaging LibO for Mageia.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Linux Distros using LO?

2011-01-10 Thread Cley Faye
Hi

For Debian: Since LibreOffice is somewhat recent, and still in beta, the
package are only available from the "experimental" repository (reminder:
there is stable, testing, unstable, and... experimental) and so are not
"ready" for public use, but they work like a charm, so I think it's worth
mentionning that there will be libreoffice available from official debian
repositories soon.

However, like with Ubuntu, I don't know if they will replace openoffice or
coexist. But I believe that being available is more important.

Hi Phil

openSUSE:
LibreOffice is in the regular openSUSE repositories for the following 
versions:

- SLE_11
- SLE_11_SP1
- openSUSE_11.1
- openSUSE_11.2
- openSUSE_11.3
- as well as openSUSE_Factory (to become openSUSE_11.4)

since LibO final is not yet released, it is under Unstable.

I believe in normal bulletted and numbered form, the text does not
scroll beneath the bullet or number. It is justified in a nicely
formatted text "box". I would believe that this should also be the
same in Draw.

Marc


Perhaps this shouldn't be necessary (perhaps it should be the default
behaviour) but (in *Draw*), select the entire list and then

- Go to Format>Bullets and Numbering
- Select the Position tab
- Select Level 1
- Increase the "Width of Numbering" from zero to anything you like the
look of
- Click OK

The second (and subsequent) line(s) of a long bullet point will now
justify under the beginning of the *text* of the first line instead of
under its bullet.

It mght be possible to increase the "Width of Numbering" in the default
template for Draw so that it is always available but I haven't tried.



Thanks Harold.

I wonder if it could be made as default. I can't imagine many people not 
wanting it to behave this way right from the start. I can only say that it 
would frustrate most of the people I know who would have to do all of these 
extra steps to get to by today's expected behaviour.


IMO, all six modules should behave the same way as to not confuse users 
unecessarily. (Writer, Calc, Empress, Draw, Math, Base).
