[Libreoffice] script providers as extensions

2010-11-10 Thread David Tardon
Hi all,

just a heads up: recently I was working on removing the script providers
for BeanShell, JavaScript and Python from standard installation, as they
are only marginally useful and (at least on Fedora) require quite a slew
of dependencies. So, from now on, they are available as plain extensions
(they are still built unconditionally, but maybe we should change even
that and add some --enable-ext-foo configure opts for them). The oxts
are placed in $SOLARVER/$INPATH/bin/script-provider-for-*.oxt . There
should be pkgs created for them by epm, but I admit I haven't tested
that part very much. If it breaks something, yell loudly and I'll do
what I can to fix it :)

D.

Hi David, 
Just a few notes:  
  --  The BeanShell, Javascript and Python options have disappeared cleanly
from the Tools-Macros-Organize  menu.  
  --  I expect that the Help will need updating to reflect the fact that
these are now options and to explain how to bring them back for people that
1) have established macros in these languages and 2) want to migrate to
LibO.  
  --  I have been having app crashes from those menu options and from
Macros-Run (building on Ubuntu 10.04) and I have been trying to stop the
boo-boos using the --without-system-python option.  I am now thinking that
you caused the compilation/linking that I needed to have the crashes stop
because the menu is now safe for me 
Thanks -- LeMoyne
