Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 92179
300m27 replaces 2.4.1
Last modified: 2008-10-21 11:53:34 UTC
"Ooo-dev 3.0.0 Beta Multilingual version English UI WIN XP: [300m27 (Build9336)]" replaced my standard OOo installation "2.4.1 Multilingual version German UI WIN XP: [680m17(Build9310)]" unwanted.
What means "replaces"? Uninstall? What is a multilingual german OOo Version?
> What means "replaces"? 2.4.1 remained on the computer, but the Quick launch button (? Left in the WIN Start Bar) has been replaced by one in the new design, and furthermore all OOo files have been opened with m27 when I double clicked them from WIN Explorer. In between I repaired the 2.4.1 installation, so now the assignment is reverted to 2.4.1 as I need it. All other new -dev installation have been parallel to 2.4.1 without modifying the assignement. > What is a multilingual german OOo Version? "Multilingual version German UI" means EN-US as base installation (OOo-Dev_DEV300_m27_Win32Intel_install_en-US.exe) with active German language pack.
I confirm the problem with FR installation of OOo 2.4.1 on XP (in VMware) If you are not admin of your PC, you have to manually restore each "open with" assignment.
@ is: I think we should disarm the DEV snapshots.
Fixed in cws native178. With WRITE_REGISTRY = 0 in the property table for development builds, no Windows registry keys are written.
is -> of: Please verify in cws native178. MS file type registration is also not done, if WRITE_REGISTRY is set to 0.
OF: The developer snapshot now behaves as a beta version. The non-dev version is also ok.
OF: Looks good for me in the latest developer snapshot m33.
