help requests, and handle them like every other Issue. Also maybe the
barrier between developers/testers and user support gets reduced a bit.

If it is a bug someone can simply change the component and we can check
for reproducibility. Instead of NOT_AN_ISSUE I would like to have FIXED
by workaround or something similar.


I cannot belief that all (or the most) users are really angry / annoyed 
/ disappointed. Can you proof that?


The resolution was created to make it visible that the reported issue 
has its source not in OpenOffice. It has nothing to do with user 
support. Maybe it's often used for this but this was/is not intended.


Sorry but I don't like the idea to delete a resolution because of 
unsatisfied users.


We can create a new product with a default component and put the users@ 
mailing list as assignee. But IMHO this wouldn't change the root problem:


An issue tracker is the wrong channel for users when they have howto 
questions or support requests. Here we need to think how this can be 
improved.


My 2 ct.

[discussion] get rid of NOT_AN_OOO_ISSUE

Hi all,

I would like to get rid of the Resolution "NOT_AN_OOO_ISSUE". This
leaves people angry and it is annoying to Copy paste or just rewrite
always the same stuff.

users list to it. With that we have a broader community looking at those

can you take some time and write your opinion? -would you like to help?


Thanks

All the Best

Peter

Re: Install on Linux Mint 18.1

2018-12-29 Thread Dan Lewis
So, you tried many different ways. But you have not said what those ways 
are: you need to write back to this mailing list with that additional 
information. (users@openoffice.apache.org) Only then will someone be 
able to tell you what the problem is. I have seen emails on this mailing 
list from people using Linux Mint, so it can be done.

I have been attempting to find out how to install Apache Open Office on

and every command that I have encountered to install Apache returns the
message that the file cannot be found.What am I doing wrong.I have
searched everywhere and attempted the methods that have been listed and I
still come up with the same problem.
I have purged libre office because I did read that libre may cause problems
using Apache.
can you let me know how to do it or if it can be done?
For some reason the libre writer jammed in a book view and I was unable to
change it to a regular view so I got frustrated and decided to just use
someone else's software.
