Point taken - need to rename the bug to something like "Enabling Hebrew interface makes content all drop-down lists disappear". One consequence of this - the one I found first - was that it is impossible to revert the change once done. > *Then* you > spoke about the dropdown boxes, which AFAIR is a known problem upstream and > might be fixed in 2.0.3, I'll check. I did look in OO.o bugzilla first (I've reported a number of bugs there) but didn't find any mention of this problem; similarly the upstream debs (from hebrew.openoffice.org) don't have the problem, although they come with native Hebrew and an English language pack add-on. I don't use them as they are not well debianised and don't have KDE support etc. > I don't deny that it is a important > bug but that doesn't have anything to do with your tittle since you can > change the UIs language using the locales. ??? > I'll let this bug open for the > dropdown thing....
