Bug ID: 142485
Summary: Check for Updates Not Packager-Aware
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Installation
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I'm using 7.1.2.2 on Linux Mint, which uses the Debian packager. LO told me
there was an update available and presented the Check for Updates window. When
I clicked Download... it took me to the downloads page with "Linux (64-bit)
(rpm)" selected, when it should be "Linux (64-bit) (deb)" in my case.
Changing the selection from the operating system pull-down menu is trivial, of
course. But other people may not be as observant and accidentally download the
wrong format.
I would think it would be easy enough for LO to pass the packager format for
the current OS as an argument in the download link and have either the server
or Javascript on the download page select the correct format.
