Description Loh Siu Yin 2005-02-13 13:15:27 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5)
Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0

Description of problem:
oowriter, oocalc symlinks to the ooffice script do not launch writer,
calc etc when executed. Instead only a blank screen is presented. The
bug is due to the setting of $BinSuffix in ooffice to 1.1 while the
wrapper scripts installed lack the 1.1 suffix.

To fix either set $BinSuffix to '' (null string) or install the
wrapper symlinks as oowriter1.1, oocalc1.1 etc.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openoffice.org-1.1.3-5.5.0.fc3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run oowriter from command line or click on writer icon on gnome
desktop / menu system.
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  Open office application runs but presents a blank screen.

Expected Results:  A blank writer / calc / impress document should be
presented.
