Description of problem: When starting ooffice, oowriter, ... from a user with an existing OOo 1.0.2 installation, the (graphical) setup routine gets started which wants to install in ~/OpenOffice.org1.1.0 (instead of ~/.openoffice). Running an OOo program doesn't recognize this and starts setup again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): openoffice.org-1.1.0-1 How reproducible: Fairly easy. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have a user with an openoffice-1.0.2 installation 2. run oowriter 3. setup gets run 4. run oowriter 5. setup gets run [...] (n-1). choose ~/.openoffice as user directory (n). run oowriter which starts finally Actual results: See description. Expected results: Old config gets migrated to OOo 1.1.0 format, few/no user interaction required. Additional info:

Problem is that the old installed language was "00" (see ~/.openoffice/instdb.ins) but new install language is "01", and therefore OOo setup will not cleanly upgrade. Problem will be fixed in 1.1.0-3

1.1.0-3 has been released. Has this been resolved? -M
I tested upgrading with a couple of different user accounts at version 1.1.0-4, and this problem is fixed for me. I did have an account that still had problems; however it was a test account that I had used for various OOo tests, and probably was very 'unhealthy'.
Should be fixed for all in 1.1.0-4, for new upgrades.
