This is related to bug 169267
When the Options - Calc - General -> "Update links on opening" is set to the
default "On request" value, and the user refuses updating the linked values on
opening, the Edit Links dialogs Update button does not let them do this either.
1. In Options - Calc - General -> "Update links on opening" make sure "On
request" is selected
2. Open attachment 203741 with attachment 203742 downloaded in the same
directory
3. When the "Automatic update of external links has been disabled." toolbar is
displayed, either don't click on Allow updating or just close it
4. Open Edit - Links to External Files
5. In the Edit Links dialog press the Update button
-> Nothing happens

commit 75a88761b70a098e77c73a0ba716d0e78a6d4659 (patch)
Consolidate link update handling
My expectation would be that updating the links can happen at opening time with
the infobar or later from the Edit Links dialog, if the Options - Calc -
General -> "Update links... " setting is not set to "Never".
Especially because if the user does not allow the update from the infobar, then
currently there is no other mean to do it - the Edit Links dialogs Update
button would be a realistic expectation to be a manual override for the infobar
option.
