--- Comment #32 from Sierk Bornemann <sie...@gmx.de> --- (In reply to Emir Sarı (away) from comment #31) > This bug should be regarded as a "high" importance bug, since it greatly > distrupts user experience and creates a "this is sh*t" or "this does not > work" (which I belive worse than "this is sh*t") impression on end users. > > When the need to install a second file just to specify the UI language is > already a big UX no-no, it is not likely that end-users will try to find > (and even if they do, still not get frustrated) a solution for this problem. +1 See Apache OpenOffice how it is asked for and should be done a favor to UX: Download Apache OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org/download/ Select your favorite operating system, language and version: [Operating System] [Language] [Version] -> Download *full* installation OR Download language pack (download SF-server: https://sf.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.2/binaries/ For current german OpenOffice this means: https://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.1.2/binaries/de/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.2_MacOS_x86-64_install_de.dmg/download Contents of this DMG: *One* App. In exactly that language, the user has requested and downloaded it before. Installing the App after mounting the DMG: Drag & Drop into /Applications Done! Please also acknowledge: Apache OpenOffice - Full Installation vs. Language Pack http://www.openoffice.org/download/full_vs_lp.html [quote] By default Apache OpenOffice is offering a *single* language when installing a *full* installation. Full installation means that all application modules (Write, Calc, Impress, etc.) are available. The term does not belong to languages. When you want to use one or more languages in OpenOffice for the user interface (for example, menus, dialogs and messages ) and help topics then it is recommended to use language packs. *The idea is to have a base installation for, *e.g., English (US)* and additional languages on top without a need to install a full installation for every language. For this every language pack has to be installed over a full installation. [/quote] What are Apache OpenOffice release maintainers able and willing to do what LibreOffice release maintainers so far obviously are not willing to do? WHY this absolutely avoidable inconvenience and burden for the user experience when downloading and installing LibreOffice? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
