Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 62598
DDE link on utf-8 system starts with 3 additional letters ""
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
My system is SuSE 10 complete updated with apt with OOo2.0.2RC5 and newest OOo from SuSE. On both this error happens. If I paste from an OOo document (odt or sxw) with [CRTL]+[Shift]+[V] selecting DDE the pasted text gets three letters in addition at the beginning. Example: "Test" is shown as "Test" This is also shown in a saved and unzipped content.xml. If I change language with "EXPORT LANG=de_DE" instead of "de_DE.utf8" the pasted text is shown correct. Same behaviour with Calc. In Impress/Draw there is no DDE selectable.
Reassigned to ES.
Seeing the same issue with openSUSE 10.0 x86_64 and Ooo_SRC680_m159_LinuxIntel_install_en-US_rpm.tar.gz using documents in en_GB language.
Are you sure you're using UTF-8 locale? That very much looks like the Byte Order Mark when viewed viewed with latin1 charset. Please check wehther replacing the probably invalid de_DE.utf8 by de_DE.UTF-8 On most recent systems de_DE already is UTF-8
ES->OS: as tested, imported documents with DDE link created on Windows also show that problem.
export | grep LANG says: declare -x LANG="de_DE.UTF-8"
I confirm this issue on 2.2 (official version from OOo RPMs) under Ubuntu Dapper. Locale is fr_FR.UTF-8.
