this is most probably http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110722

Comment 3 Satyabrata Maitra 2011-06-14 09:24:45 UTC
The same behavior is happening for or_IN and as_IN as well for oowriter, oocalc and ooimpress.

Comment 4 Caolan McNamara 2011-06-14 10:31:19 UTC
Presumably this is unchanged since RHEL-5 was released, can't see why its suddenly an issue now. Shouldn't the focus be on >= RHEL-6 ?

Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2011-09-23 00:28:39 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the
current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this
request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support
representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant,
in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 8 RHEL Program Management 2011-09-23 08:35:09 UTC
Development Management has reviewed and declined this request.  You may appeal
this decision by reopening this request.
