Hello All,Is there any way to define customized options at the "system level" that won't be overridden when a new version of LibreOffice is installed?Right now, we use xmlstarlet to make a few entries in /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/registry/main.xcd (and writer.xcd, calc.xcd).However, this directory appears to beoverwrittenwhen LibreOffice upgrades (on Ubuntu based systems using the LibreOffice PPAs).We can "hack around" to make sure that every user's registrymodifications.xcu has the values we want (again using xmlstarlet), but this seems like an ugly hack.Better to have system level settings persistent, and then IF a user's registrymodifications.xcu overrides this value, so be it.We also know we can modify registrymodifcations.xcu at the /etc/skel level, or put registrymodifications.xcu in /usr/lib/libreoffice/presets (however, it seems like a bug that this file is NOT copied to a users ~/.config/libreoffice folder ... see this bug:https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69609)Again, I am thinking it is the cleanest would be if there were a way to make the change at the system level, if a user has overridden then respect it.So, any pointers on how to define "persistentsystem level customized options" would be much appreciated.Thanks,iveand
No idea what specific system integration Ubuntu offers for LibreOffice, but the recommended way to install site-wide configuration settings for stock LibreOffice is via extensions that are installed as shared or bundled. (See <https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/Extensions> for details.)
