> This is the result of a new security feature.
I assume Markus means
<https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=77cc71476bae2b3655102e2c29d36af40a393201>
"LinkUpdateMode is a global setting" for
<http://www.libreoffice.org/about-us/security/advisories/cve-2015-4551/>
"CVE-2015-4551 Arbitrary file disclosure in Calc and Writer".
What is missing from that security fix is a documentation update:
* For one, any "always update links" settings stored in documents themselves
(in contrast to Writer's "Tools - Options... - LibreOffice Writer - General -
Update Links when Loading" and Calc's "Tools - Options... - LibreOffice Calc -
General - Updating - Update links when opening") are ignored when loading. (I
think that's irrelevant for this issue.)
* For another, the setting "always" of the Writer/Calc option mentioned above
is treated as "on request" unless either "Tools - Options... - LibreOffice -
Security - Macro Security... - Security Level - Low (not recommended)" is
selected or the document matches any of the "Tools - Options... - LibreOffice -
Security - Macro Security... - Trusted Sources - Trusted File Locations."
I think the recipe from comment 25 works according to the above specification,
so the original issue would be resolved as NOTABUG, and this bug can be kept
open to update the documentation.
@Cor: You changed the summary from "Opening a ODS file asks to update external
links even if in the options is marked as 'always update'" to "Opening ODS file
asks to update external links even if option is set to 'always update'; and
independent of that: just always updates.." That would mean that it updates
even if you answer the "This file contains links to other files. Should they be
updated?" dialog with "No". Can you confirm that? (I cannot, at least with a
current master build.)
