Description Mathias_Bauer 2008-04-02 10:46:50 UTC
Currently OOo 3.0 Beta installation needs deinstallation of 2.x
Comment 1 Mathias_Bauer 2008-04-02 10:47:25 UTC
Setting target 3.0
Comment 2 nospam4obr 2008-04-02 11:44:52 UTC
Do we want this for the Unix/X11 desktop integration packages as well ? They are trimmed to take precedence over earlier versions of OOo, which is probably not what users expect from a Beta.

Disabling this without breaking the functionality needs intensive testing, so can't we just leave out the 
desktop integration packages for Beta ?
Comment 3 ingo.schmidt-rosbiegal 2008-04-03 10:26:16 UTC
Also taking care of system integration packages (Todo OBR).
Comment 4 nospam4obr 2008-04-04 19:46:31 UTC
Unix desktop integration has moved to the same naming scheme as the brand packages.

"is: fixed by removing all Unix system integration packages from installation set."

I want to use the 3.0 dev builds as the only office installation since I have
positive experience with OOo pre release builds. So kudos to the devs! :-)

Is this package available seperatly since I would like to have these OOo builds
integrated into the system. (Start menu links, file associations.)
Comment 11 Mechtilde 2008-04-20 14:22:16 UTC
of wrote that this problem would be fixed in m8 (native 141)

I fond this problem also in DEV300_m9 so I reopen it and set it as blocker for
Beta version
Comment 12 Mechtilde 2008-04-20 14:37:06 UTC
add CC
Comment 13 Olaf Felka 2008-04-20 15:40:57 UTC
What exact is the problem with m9?
Comment 14 norbert2 2008-04-20 17:49:12 UTC
I confirm that m9 still fails to set file associations and start menu links.
Comment 15 norbert2 2008-04-20 17:49:53 UTC
(I mean the Linux build. I have not tested the Windows build.)
Comment 16 Mechtilde 2008-04-21 08:08:08 UTC
I use Debian/Lenny (testing)

The problem is you can't install DEV300_m9 without deleting further versions.

This means if you aren't a programmer you have to delete more than 30 packages
separate one by one.

Then you have the problem that ooo-core01 depends on ooo-core04 and ooo-core04
depends on ooo-core01 and so on.

So you need more information to do it with dpkg as a normal tester have about a
deb system.

As I read the error messages you also can't install the DEV3000 version nearby
the version 2.4 and also can't do an update.

therefore it is a P1 for me.


Comment 17 Olaf Felka 2008-04-21 10:35:25 UTC
I've had no problem to install OOo 2.4 and DEV300_m9 on my Ubuntu machine. So I
can't imagine that this will be a problem on Debian. And according to the
summary this issue is fixed.

"As I read the error messages you also can't install the DEV3000 version nearby

But I have installed DEV300_m9 beside OOo 2.4. Updating OOo 2.4 with DEV300_mX
doesn't make sense so I don't see the problem.
Comment 20 Mechtilde 2008-04-21 15:10:48 UTC
I can attach the dpkg.log of my installing on weekend
it doesn't show the error messages but showing that many packages can't be
installed before removing some others.

I also try to do another installation to get also the error messages.

Installation LOg of DEV_m9
Comment 22 Olaf Felka 2008-04-21 17:47:54 UTC
TRe log shows no OOo 2.4 entry. Therefore I think I can set this issue to
'fixed' again.
Comment 23 nospam4obr 2008-04-21 20:18:44 UTC
I agree with Olaf: the log indicates that OOo 2.4 has already been 'upgraded' to DEV300_m3 and since 
then we broke the upgrade path nearly every second minor, so there were packages left from m3, m5 and 
m7 that conflicted with the ones from m9 and needed to be removed manually.

Sorry, we clearly missed to put a big 'Warning' sign on top of these packages. 

However, I see no evidence that installing a plain OOo 2.4 in parallel with DEV300_m9 would still not be 
possible, thus I set _this_ issue to 'FIXED' again.
Comment 24 nospam4obr 2008-04-22 05:42:29 UTC
I almost forgot to mention that currenlty the OOo-Dev builds use the same
package naming scheme as the OpenOffice.org version for most of the packages,
which makes the situation even worse ATM. I have submitted Issue 88570 to track
this problem.
Comment 25 Olaf Felka 2008-04-22 10:47:05 UTC
The fix has been verified in cws native141.
Comment 26 Olaf Felka 2008-04-22 10:49:27 UTC
Looks good for me in master of dev300_m9/m10
Comment 27 uwe.luebbers 2008-04-24 11:35:07 UTC
Added "integrated" to the title, because it makes it much easier to work with the meta 
issue
Comment 28 tab 2008-06-12 21:33:55 UTC
Is this issue really 'closed' and 'fixed'?

I installed ver.3 beta.
Then, ver. 2.4.1 came on the scene, but Install refused to proceed, telling me
to remove a 'newer' version first. Which 'newer' version? The only non-beta
version I have is 2.3.1.
I use Windows XP.

Well, I can only imagine that it's confused by having a OOo 3 snapshot installed.
As far as I can see it's a bug in the installer.
