Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
1) Drag and drop an image of any type into a blank OpenOffice.org Writer window.
2) Right-click the image and select 'Picture...'
3) Select the 'macro' tab and the following warning appears, loops and makes
OpenOffice.org unusable:
OpenOffice.org requires a Java runtime environment (JRE) to preform this task.
Please install a JRE and restart OpenOffice.org. Please install the required
openoffice.org-java-common package for this functionality.
[ OK ]
I can click [ OK ] a million times and it won't go away.
I have Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1 and OpenOffice 2.4.0.
