Description of problem: soffice --help wouldn't display help when soffice already running Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libreoffice-*-3.4.5.2-1.el6 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. run soffice 2. run soffice --help again when soffice already running 3. Actual results: no output Expected results: should display help Additional info:
known fix upstream, will backport it
bah the *exact* original case of soffice --help should work, but any of the swriter, simpress etc wrappers add another agument to the command line and the original test to show help only works for 1 argument.
Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: Cause: new faster startup helper not aware of the command line help option Consequence: activating the help feature from the command line when an instance is already executing doesn't work Fix: extend the startup scripts to handle the help feature under all circumstances Result: activating help from the command line works under all circumstances
