Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 79839
unopkg has geeky/silly errormessage when working on read-only context + crash
Last modified: 2009-10-09 08:12:01 UTC
The message is e.g. [autojsk@tazman program]$ ./unopkg add --shared ~/workspace/unopkg-tool/plain.oxt ERROR: operating on read-only context! Cause: unopkg failed. 1) The "Cause:" is unneccessary as the line above already proclaims the existence of an ERROR 2) The errormessage is designed for geeks of at least level 3 and magicians from level 10 up 3) unopkg failed - who would have guessed ;-) A nice errormessage could be: You are trying to install an extension to the shared layer (for all users). Due to missing accessrights you may not install shared extensions.
.
Retargeted to 3.0.
Retargeting.
running unopkg add --shared without write permission caused a crash, which at least is visible in a windows non-pro office. This is fixed now. A changed the string to add extension: "You need write permissions to install a shared extension!" remove extension: "You need write permissions in order to remove a shared extension!" reinstall all extension: "You need write permissions in order to install shared extensions!" Please note that these strings are contained in exceptions. They are therefore neither localized nor specified.
@jsk: Please verify.
