2.2.0-ubuntu3 (one or dictionary packages are different) Yes, the problems are entirely with OOo. No, the problem is not with the repository. This desktop, from where I am writing this mail, is in a daily update setting of apt-get, as connected machines usually are. And this gives me all the problems with Bangla, I have already reported the problems to bengalinux.org. A particular ODT in Bangla on which I am working for almost two years, a span within which I have worked on it from three different OS, SuSE, RH and Ubuntu, is all OK now in Fedora when I send it to some Fedora machine. But, it is all mixed up in Ubuntu. Even the earlier version of Ubuntu was OK with it. It is a very lengthy essay with lot of linear algebra, concerning Marx's Value Algebra. Now, even the equations and the page numbers are also mixed up. Let alone the 'smartquote' problem. The 'endquote' for both single and double quotes are not anymore getting transformed into 'smartquote'. Some of the characters have also got mangled. It is a nightmare now. But, on Sankarshan Mukhopadhyay's machine, F7, they are all OK. Mukhopadhyay sent me all the screen-shots. If you knew Bangla, or had Bangla support on your machine, I would have requested you to try it on your machine too. And the laptop where I was installing the Hindi support, I did it from a 'debmirror' repository, locally on my desktop, which is used by many of my friends, and it is updated regularly, just the 'main', 'universe', 'multiverse' portions for i386. I completed the last update just a few hours before the installation. So, I don't think it is an update problem. I think the problem is in what I would prefer to call a 'premature birth' of Feisty. Anyway, thanks, you are really a good friend in need. -- das _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
