Yeah, that one is a mess upstream: - unit tests need debug - tests need write permissions in the LO directory (which they of course don't have in /usr/lib/libreoffice) ... > Is there any reason why you use loolwsd's init script to configure it > instead of setting the defaults in /etc/loolwsd/loolwsd.xml?

That part wasn't updated for some time, I wouldn't be surprised if it broke. /etc/default is a well-known location for environment variables needed by init scripts, though. That said, for init script I'd stay as close as with upstream as possible since maintaining an initi script is a PITA. (People ideally should use systemd and the systemd unit anyway but init scripts still should be shipped if feasible.) But MRs (or patches if you don't have an account on salsa) welcome. > I very much hope, you're going to continue your excellent work and > libreoffice online hits the debian archive any time in a not too distant > future! ;-) If someone sorts out the JS mess and packages the modules (and keeps the chain uptodate) ;-) Then we just need to figure out the test mess (maybe not run them during the build at all indeed and make it a "needs-root breaks-testbed" autopkgtest. One should probably add a autopkgtest anyway.) Regards, Rene

Dear Rene, thank you very much for the hard work you've put in packaging libreoffice online. Starting from your salsa repo[1] I was able to successfully build loolwsd and loleaflet packages with the libreoffice packages from buster-backports. There were, however, some issues with the unit tests. After trying to investigate some of the issues, I decided to skip the test by adding an empty override_dh_auto_test target. Is there any reason why you use loolwsd's init script to configure it instead of setting the defaults in /etc/loolwsd/loolwsd.xml? With the current init script this does not work. May I suggest to use a simpler init script like this one: 8<-8<-8<-8<-8<-8<-8<-8<- #!/bin/sh # kFreeBSD do not accept scripts as interpreters, using #!/bin/sh and sourcing. if [ true != "$INIT_D_SCRIPT_SOURCED" ] ; then set "$0" "$@"; INIT_D_SCRIPT_SOURCED=true . /lib/init/init-d-script fi ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: loolwsd # Required-Start:$remote_fs # Required-Stop: $remote_fs # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: libreoffice online server # Description: libreoffice online server ### END INIT INFO DESC="libreoffice online server" DAEMON=/usr/bin/loolwsd DAEMON_ARGS="--daemon" START_ARGS="--chuid lool --user lool" ->8->8->8->8->8->8->8->8 I very much hope, you're going to continue your excellent work and libreoffice online hits the debian archive any time in a not too distant future! ;-) best regards, Adi Kriegisch [1] https://salsa.debian.org/libreoffice-team/libreoffice/libreoffice-online/ signature.asc Description: PGP signature

It's a wish for a new package, which isn't even developed inside the LO "core" code and thus wouldn't be built from here anyway. And definitely not in stable in any case. > Please add libreoffice-online to the debian. I suppose it is very useful > feature. Maybe, but you need consumers for it. Of which I know of nextclouds richdocument stff but that one isn't packaged either. :) A daemon and JS stuff for "nothing" doesn't really help, does it? Also see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=787080. I have a building (with npm from nodejs package...) package, but I am not succeeding getting it to work... It's all theory anyway given the npm JS mess and that it Current packaging is at https://salsa.debian.org/libreoffice-team/libreoffice/libreoffice-online, though... Regards, Rene
