Package: openoffice.org Version: 2.0.4.dfsg.2-5etch1 Severity: important hi,
OOo1.x used to have a mozilla-like panel to setup helpers program. On upgrade to OOo2 only the emailer remained, but that feature is broken now, and undocumented: 1. on fresh install, there's a misterious 'sensible-ooomua' which is not documented anywhere in man/docs/help and, if avail it seems a hook for evolution, which is not the emailer of my choice, and no info is avail for configuring it. 2. if there's a program/script name borrowed from OOo1.x, which *worked*, it may not work anymore, an error msg pops up, saying OOo is not setup for a 'supported' emailer ?!? If it where just for point 1, fine - I'd just delete the misty sensible* and put in fullpath to my emailer/script. But the real culprit is point 2: first, it doesn't work (anymore), breaks user's setting/setup; second, and most important, what the heck means 'supported'? OOo should be neutral wrt helper apps - if it knows exactly how to pass args to a handful progs, fine (but may put maint. overhead), like in OOo1 just offer such pre-defined entries (moz1,moz2,...) but then there must be a generic opt for the generic emailer/helper the end-user wants to use, which would be called by % user-supplied-program-name/path 'path-to-temp-file' which would do whatever the end-user needs/wants to happen pressing the send-as-(PDF)-attachment. thanks -- paolo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
