The wizard still doesn't work on LibreOffice 3.5.0rc2 Build ID: e371a95-bf68a13-5a1aa2b-d3c1ae9-b938258 .deb from LO. It's nothing to do with the distrib - but this is running on Ubuntu 10.10. However, opening Base & selecting connect to existing database does show (for me) 'SeaMonkey Address Book' and 'Thunderbird/IceDove Address Book' - those do work - partially[1]. However, Edit|Database|Properties is greyed out on SeaMonkey, I can only select 'Connection type'. On Thunderbird I can select the profile. [1] I ran a test by adding test addressbooks on Thundrbird and SeaMonkey (both are Mozilla versions, not distro related) in additionto the regular exising address books: In SeaMonkey: TestingSeaMonkey w/1 address In Thunderbird: ThunderbirdTest w/1 address I then opened 3.5RC2 & opened Base|Connect to existing database|Thunderbird/IceDove Address Book|Finish|Yes Register|Open for editing| Base opens the SeaMonkey address book (SeaMonkey version 2.7b5) instead of the Thunderbird (version 9.0.1) address book. I can tell this because it included the 'TestingSeaMonkey' address book in the tables. If I repeat the above opening the SeaMonkey address book, Base opens the correct address book (the SeaMonkey one which includes 'TestingSeaMonkey'. So something is still screwed up. Profiles/address books for both are exactly where they should be: Thunderbird: ~/.thunderbird/<profile>/ SeaMonkey: ~/.mozilla/seamonkey/<profile>/ -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
