Bug ID: 89952
Summary: FILTER libreoffice --convert-to ods actually converts
to fods
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.3.6.2 rc
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
libreofffice --headless --convert-to ods file.sxc
generates a file with extension .ods which is actually a flat XML file and
should therefore have file extension .fods . See (NOTABUG) bug report #89935
for consequences.
Can it be fixed so that if one requests conversion to ods, one actually gets
ods? The action of the above command would best be expressed as --convert-to
fods, and if there is no appropriate filter for converting to ods, then the
appropriate action of the above command would be an error message something
like
"No filter exists that can convert sxc to ods. You can, however, use
--convert-to fods"
In mitigation I do now realize the significance of the text output by the above
command "using OpenDocument Spreadsheet Flat XML". But at the time the command
seemed to have succeeded: I had a .ods file that opened OK
Info request: is there a headless convert command that will turn a .fods file
into a genuine .ods file so that I can reconvert about 3,000 files that may
have been edited subsequent to conversion from .sxc?
