The history for using Conflicts is initiated in Voikko upstream because
of the unreliability of UNO in OpenOffice.org, described eg. here:
http://lists.puimula.org/old-voikko-archive/2006-July/000654.html
I'm unable to judge whether the risks in OOo 3.1 era (and the future
versions) are lower
Right, so the issue is with 'unopkg' being too stupid to notice when it
has been built with a compiler whose ABI version differs from the
previous one and easily crashing with segmentation fault as a result of
an ABI-incompatible upgrade between OOO and its third-party plug-ins.
At least, that
Rene says that upstream OOo claims to have retained ABI compatibility
along the years, but he also noticed that there were several changes
that required a new ooo-voikko between 3.0 and 3.1.
Still, he feels that compatibility should exists between minor updates
e.g. 3.1.0 to 3.1.2 should remain
This bug was fixed in the package openoffice.org-voikko - 3.1-2build1

openoffice.org-voikko (3.1-2build1) karmic; urgency=low
* No-change rebuild against current OpenOffice.org, to make package
installable again. (LP: #420003)
-- Martin Pitt martin.p...@ubuntu.com Mon,
I've just asked a core-dev and a binary-build should be uploaded soon.
:)
However, this doesn't resolve the main issue: ooo-voikko has
pointlessly paranoid dependency versions which force us to rebuild with
every tiny OOO update, which is a process that currently cannot be
automated. This needs
Yep, a rebuild should be done. Additionally, there is bug #423048
preventing ooo-voikko from being installed automatically in karmic, and
bug #414753 about ooo-help-fi (new in karmic) being not installed
automatically either.
These would be nice to get escalated... this bug seems to be subscribed
As explained at bug #409764, ooo-voikko and mozvoikko are nowadays
installed by the language selection tool, instead of by language-
support-writing-fi. This is to prevent pulling Firefox and OpenOffice on
systems where lightweight alternatives e.g. AbiWord, Epiphany, Chromium,
etc. are installed
Now that OpenOffice 3.1.1 is finally in Karmic, could we please proceed
with the ooo-voikko rebuild? Thanks!
