Package: openoffice.org-writer Version: 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 Severity: grave Justification: causes non-serious data loss
A document originally created in MS Office in docx format can be opened in OpenOffice, however when the document is then saved in docx format, something goes horribly wrong, possibly with the TOC table. Subsequently MS Office refuses to open the document with an error message and when the document is opened with OpenOffice, it only has page and footers, and the basic structure of the original document, but the entire content is lost. I have tried to fix this by converting the document into a zip file and then manually removing the offending parts (according to the vague error messages from MS Office), but that just makes it worse. Since the docx output from OpenOffice is readically different from the output generated by MS Office, cut and paste is not an option, either. The relevant document is attached. To recreate the problem, follow these steps: 1) Open the document in OO 2) Save under a different name in docx format 3) Close all open documents 4) Open the saved docx document Result: page structure is retained, TOC is retained, but on subsequent pages all content has disappeared. The outline elements are still visible (bullet points, headers, table outlines) but none of the text is there. The TOC is not recognized as a TOC any longer and cannot be updated. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686-bigmem (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages openoffice.org-writer depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libicu44 4.4.1-7 International Components for Unico ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libstlport4.6 4.6.2-7 STLport C++ class library ii libwpd8c2a 0.8.14-1 Library for handling WordPerfect d ii libwps-0.1-1 0.1.2-1 Works text file format import filt ii openoffice.or 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- share ii openoffice.or 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- arch- ii ure 1.6.1+OOo3.2.1-11+squeeze2 OpenOffice.org UNO runtime environ ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages openoffice.org-writer recommends: ii default-jre [java5 1:1.6-40 Standard Java or Java compatible R ii openjdk-6-jre [jav 6b18-1.8.3-2+squeeze1 OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspo ii openoffice.org-ema 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- email ii openoffice.org-fil 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- legac ii openoffice.org-jav 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- arch- ii openoffice.org-mat 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- equat ii sun-java6-jre [jav 6.22-1 Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment ( Versions of packages openoffice.org-writer suggests: ii openoffice.org-base 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- datab pn openoffice.org-gcj <none> (no description available) Versions of packages openoffice.org-core depends on: ii fontconfig 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-6 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcurl3-gnut 7.21.0-1 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libdb4.8 4.8.30-2 Berkeley v4.8 Database Libraries [ ii libexpat1 2.0.1-7 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-2.1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgraphite3 1:2.3.1-0.2 SILGraphite - a "smart font" rende ii libgstreamer- 0.10.30-1 GStreamer libraries from the "base ii libgstreamer0 0.10.30-1 Core GStreamer libraries and eleme ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhunspell-1 1.2.11-1 spell checker and morphological an ii libhyphen0 2.5-1 ALTLinux hyphenation library - sha ii libice6 2:1.0.6-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libicu44 4.4.1-7 International Components for Unico ii libjpeg62 6b1-1 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libmythes-1.2 2:1.2.1-1 simple thesaurus library ii libneon27-gnu 0.29.3-3 An HTTP and WebDAV client library ii libnspr4-0d 4.8.6-1 NetScape Portable Runtime Library ii libnss3-1d 3.12.8-1 Network Security Service libraries ii librdf0 1.0.10-3 Redland Resource Description Frame ii libsm6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-4squeeze1 SSL shared libraries ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libstlport4.6 4.6.2-7 STLport C++ class library ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxaw7 2:1.0.7-1 X11 Athena Widget library ii libxext6 2:1.1.2-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxinerama1 2:1.1-3 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.3.0-3 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.6-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii libxslt1.1 1.1.26-6 XSLT 1.0 processing library - runt ii libxt6 1:1.0.7-1 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii openoffice.or 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 office productivity suite -- arch- ii ttf-opensymbo 1:3.2.1-11+squeeze2 OpenSymbol TrueType font ii ure 1.6.1+OOo3.2.1-11+squeeze2 OpenOffice.org UNO runtime environ ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-openoffice-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
