Public bug reported: Summary: System version: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS, Release 12.04 Package: libreoffice . Version: 1:4.1.0-0ubuntu1-precise1~ppa1 Expected to happen: Mendeley Desktop plugin working like in previous Libreoffice or Libreoffice from mainstream. What happened: it fails with a python-loader error. Possible workaround: export PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/
Longer description and workaround: When trying to use Mendeley Desktop Libreoffice extension (and, I see on the Internet, other extensions) it doesn't work. Appears: """ BASIC runtime error. An exception ocurred Type: com.sun.star.uno.RuntimeException Message: python-loader:<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named pythonloader, traceback follows no traceback available . """ This can be reproduced using libreoffice version 1:4.1.0-0ubuntu1-precise1~ppa1 It's working correctly using Libreoffice from www.libreoffice.org. A possible workaround is to launch Libreoffice this way: export PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/ ; libreoffice (note that pythonloader.py is in that directory) See a confirmation here: https://github.com/Mendeley/openoffice-plugin/issues/11 So it fails libreoffice 4.1 PPA but not the upstream one, and there is a workaround (too complicated for some users). ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212216 Title: python-loader:<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>:No module named pythonloader Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Summary: System version: Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS, Release 12.04 Package: libreoffice .
