To sum up for a fresh 8.04.1 install: After fresh 8.04.1 install, installed ubuntu-restricted-extras which among others installed packages java-common, sun-jave6-bin, sun-java6-jre, sun-java6-plugin. Upon checking, OpenOffice has no JRE installed (Tools-options-Java), even though the box is ticked.
After installing openoffice.org-java-common, then restarting OpenOffice, OpenOffice now has JRE. I think for fresh installs, the package openoffice.org-java-common should be added among the packages in ubuntu-restricted-extras. -- Java broken in openoffice hardy upgrades https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222803 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
