Chapter 1. Package Updates
to define the uint32 and int32 variables as the appropriate type of int or long depending on the
architecture. (BZ#496033
• when performing an Edit
button was visible but inactive. A patch has been applied to remove the Find All button from the
interface as this is not a supported OpenOffice.org Impress feature.
• when attempting to merge a .sxi or .odt file into an OpenOffice.org Calc
document, the application would crash due to the SfxMedium* pMed pointer in
ScDocShell::DialogClosedHdl() being set to NULL. A patch has been applied to the
docsh4.cxx file to test the state of this variable prior to affecting the merge.
• when using OpenOffice.org Calc with spell check enabled, if a misspelt word was entered in a
cell and the Edit Repeat:Insert operation was attempted from within a new cell, the misspelt
word will would not be inserted. The viewfunc.cxx file has been updated to ensure that the insert
operation is functional even if the original cell contents are misspelt.
• in OpenOffice.org Calc, the Data
for any cell that contained a formula specifying a cell range as a list (for example: =SUM(A1;A2;A3)).
To fix this bug the cell.hxx file has been modified to simplify a list range (for example: the
list A2;A1;A3 would become A1:A3). By condensing the list, the Data
AutoOutline command now works as expected.
• building RPMs for OpenOffice.org would fail when a Java version above version 1.4 was installed.
This occurred because the ANT scripts used to build some of the components were not configured
to generate version 1.4 compatible bytecode upon which OpenOffice.org is dependent. This bug
has since been fixed by enforcing RPMs to be built with the GNU Compiler for Java (GCJ) or
the Eclipse Compiler for Java (EJC). GJC specific options have been omitted as these are not
recognized by EJC. This ensures that OpenOffice.org RPMs are generated without error when
using the rpmbuild command.
• when printing, OpenOffice.org would sometimes crash. This was due to the code that processes
Postscript Printer Description (PPD) keys from CUPS inserting a value of None as the first value for
each newly inserted key. Under these circumstances the second insertion returns a NULL pointer
and the following statement causes the crash by dereferencing the pointer. To correct this bug the
jobset.cxx file has been modified to only insert a value of None as the first value for each newly
inserted key if it is not already present.
• when zooming in over 128% on a document in the OpenOffice.org Writer, any inserted note would
no longer be viewable. By upgrading the OpenOffice.org suite to 3.1.1-19.5 this issue is no longer
presented. (BZ#521006
• bulleted lists in an OpenOffice.org Writer version 3 document would not render when opened in
OpenOffice.org Writer version 2.3.0. By upgrading the OpenOffice.org suite to 3.1.1-19.5 this
issue is no longer presented.
• the OpenOffice.org Calc application would crash when custom colors were created. These
updated packages fix an improperly declared variable that caused the bug. Custom colors can now
be created successfully.
As well, these updated packages add the following enhancement:
