Hi :) I think the UserProfiles wiki page mentions how to get templates and Extensions back after renaming the profile but i think it doesn't go into as much detail as you have done in this email. http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile
Is there any chance of you copy&pasting your detail into that guide?

I understand that renaming ~/.libreoffice folder solved your issue. Is that correct? I think that you have two ways from now on. Dan suggest that 3.4.5 does not have that problem, so you may consider upgrade. If you want to stay with 3.4.4 for a while, then let's talk about getting your extensions and templates back ;) . They are still in your ~/.libreoffice--old folder. You may try to copy them to your new ~/.libreoffice. Unfortunately, I can not help you to decide which files you exactly has to copy. Definitely ~/.libreoffice/3/user/extensions and ~/.libreoffice/3/user/template folders, maybe something else too. Just check names of files, they should give a clue what they are for. By copying files one by one and running LO after each copy (to see if everything is in place) you should be able to get you templates and extensions without need to search them over the net and installing manually. Or you can rename you .libreoffice--old back to .libreoffice and remove suspicious files one by one, until you track which caused your problems. But make sure you have backup copy of your original ~/.libreoffice in case you delete one file too much. As for information dialog, I see two possible explanations. 1. Wikipedia article about LibreOffice states "The first run wizard from OpenOffice.org that guides a user through the setting of user name and the registration process has been removed from LibreOffice”. I can confirm this - running LO on clean user does not bring any dialog about user information. 2. Do you happen to still have old ~/.openoffice.org folder? As far as I remember, LO run for first time migrates config from ~/.oo.o to ~/.lo folder. Perhaps it migrates user information as well, which would explain why LO does not ask for them. HTH. > Debian has 3.4.5 on its repository now? Yes, there is 3.4.5 in both testing and unstable. There is also 3.5.0-rc3 in experimental. I am not sure what will happen if you try to install Debian packages on your Ubuntu system, though. It may break some things. -- Best regards Mirosław Zalewski -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
