Package: openoffice.org-impress Version: 1:3.1.0-4 Here's my situation. Somebody sends me a .pps file, so I # aptitude install openoffice.org-impress $ ooimpress javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment! Please ensure that the package openoffice.org-java-common is installed. If it is already installed then try removing ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml # aptitude install openoffice.org-java-common $ ooimpress javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment! Please ensure that the package openoffice.org-java-common is installed. If it is already installed then try removing ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml $ rm -r ~/.openoffice.org/ javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment! Please ensure that the package openoffice.org-java-common is installed. If it is already installed then try removing ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml $ rm ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml $ ooimpress javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!

Conclusions: 1) the openoffice.org-impress is missing the proper dependencies. I install 72 MB and the much smaller openoffice.org-java-common was forgotten in Depends:. 2)No tests are done before printing such messages. The program seems to work fine (as in fine molasses), after the dependency is installed. So fix the dependency, and remove the warning, I say. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
