That's exactly what I did. I've read all those docs and indeed have configured XXE to store addons on the XXE folder always, thus the user prefs folder (~/.xxe4, because we're using XXE4.9.1 for this one) is not used to store any addon. Here's the listing of the addons/ folder of the application:
fabman@monsterito ~/xxe-pro-4_9_1-synchrone $ l addon/ batik_imagetoolkit dav_vdrive es_translation fr_translation jimi_imagetoolkit spell config es_dictionary fr_dictionary jeuclid_imagetoolkit mathml_config synchrone fabman@monsterito ~/xxe-pro-4_9_1-synchrone $ and here's the listing of the particular extension in question: fabman@monsterito ~/xxe-pro-4_9_1-synchrone $ l addon/synchrone/ 0docbook5_en.properties 0docbook5_fr.properties 0docbook5.xxe customize.xxe_gui icons logo.jpg synchrone.css fabman@monsterito ~/xxe-pro-4_9_1-synchrone $ and here's the listing of the addons/ user-prefs folder: fabman@monsterito ~ $ l .xxe4 addon cache custom preferences.properties spell fabman@monsterito ~ $ l .xxe4/addon/ fabman@monsterito ~ $ I've emptied the Java cache every time I've made modifications to make sure I'm always getting the latest deployed version of the customized XXE, but no changes. I guess I'll re-read the docs and check everything once more... If you can think of anything else for me to try, I'll be glad to do it.
