Before opening a bug could you please run Check for updates from ToolsManage Extensions ?

Re: Updates for extensions?
Hi Rob, I deactivated all extensions an deinstallated the language packs (I've still got those in my windows download folder, so I can easily reinstall them). Now, even after all them gone some 25 seconds after starting OpenOffice the available updates button with text is popping up. I also did what Roberto told me, checking for updates by way of the extension manager, but there aren't any. Next thing I did was removing the extensions completely. When I removed the pdf import extension the button for available updates vanished rightaway. And when I reinstalled it the button did not return. There was an update for pdf import a short while ago and I think the update button popped up ever since that update.

Re: Updates for extensions?
Correction! It was not the PDF import, it was the professional template pack II in English. The moment I installed it the update button popped up and when I removed that extension the button vanished. But there wasn't any update. Odd, isn't it? http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/professional-template-pack-ii-english Max Am 02.08.2013 17:07, schrieb Max Merbald: Hi Rob, I deactivated all extensions an deinstallated the language packs (I've still got those in my windows download folder, so I can easily reinstall them).

When I removed the pdf import extension the button for available updates vanished rightaway. And when I reinstalled it the button did not return. Thanks for the feedback. Now I understand what happened: that extension had an invalid version number, something we manually corrected few days ago. Actually the invalid version number on your client turned on the available updates flag for such extension. Actually to remove such information from the local cache the only way to go is exactly what you did (uninstall/reinstall). It's amazing how classic jokes about computer programming are just unveiling the truth: uninstall and reinstall just works! :) Thanks, Roberto There was an update for pdf import a short while ago and I think the update button popped up ever since that update.
