Priority: medium
Bug ID: 67441
Keywords: regression
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: CONFIGURATION: *.desktop files installed from Debian
packages are with wrong user:group and permissions
(workaround available)
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.0.4 release
Component: Installation
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
Just installed LO4.1 on Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64. Discovered that I cannot open
files either by clicking on them or by using xdg-open command. The error is
that the corresponding .desktop files are not executable and do not belong to
root.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install LO4.1 from the official site DEB 64 bit files
2. Try to open a document file (of any type: ODT, DOC, ODP etc) by clicking on
it - a warning gets issued, then, if confirmed, some strange messaged about
failed update. No document is opened.
3. Use command line xdg-open to see the message:
ggg@scilla:~/Texts$ xdg-open TWAR05015_WinHEC05\ VTx.ppt
kioclient(1120) KDesktopFile::isAuthorizedDesktopFile: Access to '
"/opt/libreoffice4.1/share/xdg/impress.desktop" ' denied, not owned by root,
executable flag not set.
kioclient(1120)/kio (KRun): Unable to open replacement file for
"/opt/libreoffice4.1/share/xdg/impress.desktop" "Not enough rights to write to
folder"
Upon examination of /opt/libreoffice4.1/share/xdg/ it turned out that all files
inside it are owned by user:group 500:500 (not root) and are not marked as
executable. Marking them as such with `sudo chmod +x
/opt/libreoffice4.1/share/xdg/*` fixes the issue.
Current behavior:
No document file can be opened by clicking on it because LO4/1 cannot be
started. Opening from already running instance is possible.
Expected behavior:
Clicking on documents allows to open them.
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.1.0.4 release
Last worked in: 4.0.3.3 release
