** Description changed: Binary package hint: openoffice.org In OOo Writer 3.0.1, if you want to erase blank lines using 'search and replace' for ^$ (empty paragraph): either the blank lines are not found and nothing is replaced, either the styles may disappear and the replacement doesn't work before a page break. This worked perfectly in versions previous than Jaunty. It doesn't work in Jaunty nor in Karmic. If you add the extension "AltSearch 1.2.2 Alternative Find & Replace for Writer by Tomas Bilek", the extension does the job perfectly like Writer was able in the past versions. I've tried (before a reinstallation of Jaunty) to install OOo 3.1 (using the PPA I think) but the problem remained. In OOo 3.1.1 in Sabayon or in Parsix Linux, the problem doesn't exist. This is useful if you want to present a phonebook spreadsheet in a document in 4 columns with differents formats for the items: you can make a mailing from the spreadsheet but then you need to erase blank lines and page breaks and keep the formating. $ lsb_release -rd: Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 $ apt-cache policy openoffice.org openoffice.org: Installé : 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 Candidat : 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 Table de version : *** 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 0 500 http://ftp.free.org jaunty-updates/main Packages 500 http://ftp.free.org jaunty-security/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3 0 500 http://ftp.free.org jaunty/main Packages ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: openoffice.org-core 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: openoffice.org Uname: Linux 2.6.28-16-generic i686 + --- + Architecture: i386 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429) + NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia + Package: openoffice.org 1:3.2.0-7ubuntu4 + PackageArchitecture: i386 + ProcEnviron: + LANG=fr_FR.utf8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-22.33-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 + Tags: lucid + Uname: Linux 2.6.32-22-generic i686 + UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare ** Attachment added: "Dependencies.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/48882655/Dependencies.txt -- Search and replace EOL character ^$ (to erase blank lines) doesn't work in OOo Writer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/478804 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
