Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org-pdfimport
After installing openoffice.org-pdfimport, not one of oodraw, ooimpress,
or oowriter can open PDFs output by ps2pdf. Attempting to open a PDF
leads to a modal dialog box with the message, "General Error. General
input/output error," and an "OK" button.
After the dialog is dismissed:
If the program was launched with a PDF file as an argument, the program
then closes.
If the file was opened from a running instance, the program continues as
though nothing happened.
The PDFs generated by ps2pdf are PDF version 1.4. If PDFs are generated
by ps2pdf13 or ps2pdf12, they can be imported into oodraw as expected.
It is expected that:
1. A more detailed error message be printed (like, "This plugin supports
PDF versions x, y, and z. The documented you tried to open does not
appear to be one of these versions.").
2. The plugin properly handle version 1.4 PDFs generated by ps2pdf.
