Description Timon 2012-06-06 08:31:09 UTC
During installation AOO all the time old versions of Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable are installed. For example, despite the fact that the latest version Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable for so long is 9.0.30729.6161, while installing AOO 3.4.0 Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable 9.0.30411 is installed. And so goes on from time immemorial (only version changes). LibO no longer has in its part Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable. On a large quantity of computers requires a significant amount of time for scrubbing unwanted software. Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable should be excluded from the distribution.
