Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 43580
default manual components selection doesn't have all components selected
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:35:07 UTC
To install OO to user directory it is required to select custom installation. But in this case a lot of components are not selected by default. And the installer interface doesn't allow selecting them all by single click; each component requires its own click. So in order only to change the installation directory user has to do lots of actions. I suggest one of 3 solutions (or all of them): 1. having all components selected by default in the case of custom installation 2. changing the installer to allow selection of subcomponents by selection of a upper node 3. dividing custon installation of components and path into two independent options.
That's not a defect: Works as designed. To 1. Feature request To 2. Openeing the help dialog might solver your problem To 3. Feature request
I just want to state two things - this behaviour is inconvenient (requires additional actions in rather common case) and the 2.0 will be released soon, so the "enhancement" status can shift this issue for good.
