Hi Jonathan,

you can remove the ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/uno_packages folder completely. The will lose all installed extensions but everyhting else should be fine.

Hi all,
I posted this a while ago on the Openoffice.questions NG. No solution was
offered but I was told it is a known problem. Maybe somebody here has some
ideas on how to solve it. I'd like to avoid removing my entire
~/.openoffice.org/3/ folder if possible.
----------------------------------------------------------
I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. I'm running OO3.1 on Debian
Testing. At some point curiosity got the better of me and I installed the
barcode extension. It resides in this folder:
~/.openoffice.org/3/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/4WZ4rR_/Barcode.oxt/
I keep getting notifications about an update being available but any attempt
to update it produces an error. Using the Extensions Manager I highlighted
it and clicked the Remove button. This produces another error of this type:
"(com.sun.staar.uno.RuntimeException){
{Message= "<type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>: 'module' object has no
attribute 'writeRegistryInfo', traceback follows ..."
And the barcode extension refuses to die. I tried simply renaming the above
mention folder ending in Barcode.oxt to bad.Barcode.oxt.bad but while that
did remove barcode from my list of extensions I could not update any other
extensions and the a message whinging about not finding Barcode.oxt
appeared. Can some one tell me how I can surgically remove this stupid
extension.
Thanks,
Jonathan
