Re: There is a problem with the shared '/usr/bin/soffice' between Libreoffice and OpenOffice.

2017-11-19 Thread Girvin Herr 

Greetings,

In my Slackware Linux packages, I have no conflict. There is no soffice 
file in my /usr/bin directory. I do have:


/usr/bin/libreoffice5.3

which is a symlink to /opt/libreoffice5.3/program/soffice

and

/usr/bin/openoffice4

Which is a shell script:

#!/bin/sh
/opt/openoffice4/program/soffice

So, as can be seen, the main entry points for these two programs in 
/usr/bin are vectors to the separate soffice programs in /opt.


If you make these changes, your conflicts should disappear. I use both 
programs, even at the same time, and they work fine without conflicts. 
Note that you may need to change your ~/Desktop files to change the 
filenames and possibly your desktop icons to change the filenames to the 
new names in /usr/bin.


HTH.

This is probably an Ubuntu question rather than an Apache OpenOffice
question, I guess. I don't have Ubuntu any longer, I switched to Arch Linux
recently, but I would try to uninstall both completely and then, if I
wanted both of them, download the debs from http://www.libreoffice.org/
(”Still” version) and http://www.openoffice.org/ respectively and install
them from a terminal with dpkg.


Kind regards

Problem solved.

Sorry for wasting bandwidth; happy that I can now insert row/column again.

Then run:

This will tell you that the .tar.gz file has a valid signature by Jim, 
Release Manager for 4.1.4. It might still complain that it can't verify 
that the key belongs to the reported owner, but you will have to trust 
the KEYS file for this.


This won't solve your problem with YaST at all, since this applies to 
the archive as a whole, not to the contents.



What command do you use for installation? RPM directly, something like
"rpm -Uvh *.rpm"? Or some interface to it? There is probably some
setting that you should disable in order for it to trust "unsigned"
packages (again, ours ARE signed; just, we sign the archive but not
the individual packages).

I use the Yast software software management utility.  I create a
repository by copying the contents of the downloaded file to a directory
and then tell the Yast software management to update.  I've been using
this method for years and it's never failed before.


I don't think this depends on how we packaged 4.1.4. I would be 
surprised if you get something different with 4.1.3, or any earlier 
release. Is it possible that some upgrade enforced YaST to reject 
unsigned packages?


I see the same error being reported here: 
https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/15418 for another project, and being 
tracked down to a YaST/OS issue. In that case they could solve it by 
signing the package, but in our case we already sign the .tar.gz, just 
YaST likely cannot see or handle it. So you will have to disable some 
YaST settings to get it to behave as it did in earlier times.

There is always a way to tweak things one way you can achieve this to
format the page Select the Border tab and set the Left and Right border
with the desire colour.
Set the Left and Right spacing to content to the desired value which reduce
the content space for text.
Now adjust the margins by the value set above so that the content space is
restored to the original value
