Hi there,
when installing the SnippetCreator on a German version of Windows XP an
interesting problem may occur: the length of the path (including the
file name "AddonConfiguration.xcs") exceeds even some of the operating
system (!) functions like copy (!!). It is not possible to delete that
file from the command line with the "del" command, however using the
Windows explorer works fine.
Here is the path into which the SnippetCreator gets installed to on a
German Windows XP. As you can see, the profiles' root is already named
quite long as: "Dokumente und Einstellungen":
------------------- cut here -----------------------

Der Dateiname ist zu lang.
0 Datei(en) kopiert.

Using unopkg.exe from the command line gives the following error:
------------------- cut here -----------------------
D:\Programme\OpenOffice.org 2.1\program>unopkg add
F:\download\openOffice\SnippetCreator-20060707.un
o.pkg
ERROR: Fehler beim Aktivieren von: AddonConfiguration.xcu
unopkg failed.
------------------- cut here -----------------------
Is there anything I could/should do to remedy the situation and gain a
working installation of the SnippetCreator? (This is OOo 2.1 at the
moment, will be upgrading to 2.2.1 over the weekend.)
