Phrasing issue in Open Office

[Isaac B]

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

Ubuntu 9.10
openoffice.org 1:3.1.1-5ubuntu1

When exporting as a PDF and overwriting an existing file, the question regarding "overwrite existing file?" in contained in quote marks.

This look kind of weird.

I can confirm this after testing on my system. The dialog text is indeed displayed in quotes.

[Robert Roth (evfool)]

Bug #525670 should also be fixed at the same time.

[Chris Wilson (notgary-deactivatedaccount)]

Since OpenOffice is going to be replaced with LibreOffice in 11.04, this no longer counts as a paper cut. Can someone please confirm whether or not this bug is still present in the latest version of LibreOffice?

[Jack Leigh (leighman)]

I can still reproduce in Libreoffice 3.3

[xapantu (xapantu)]

It doesn't happen in LO git.

[Chris Wilson (notgary-deactivatedaccount)]

xapantu, do you mean it's fixed in the upstream source?

[xapantu (xapantu)]

Yes, or, at least, in git, it seems to be fixed, excepted if we don't
speak about the same thing :)

I've had a cursory glance at the source code at "git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/bootstrap" and am unable to find the string quoted in the OP's description. xapantu, can you please specify in which file the corrected line appears?

[xapantu (xapantu)]

It appears in several files:
dbaccess/source/ui/dlg/CollectionView.src: Text [ en-US ] = "The file already exists. Overwrite?" ;
cui/source/dialogs/hyperdlg.src: Text [ en-US ] = "The file already exists. Overwrite?" ;
fpicker/source/office/iodlg.src: Text [ en-US ] = "The file already exists. Overwrite?" ;
svx/source/form/fmstring.src: Text [ en-US ] = "The file already exists. Overwrite?" ;

I don't know which one is used for the PDFs, but it has been fixed :)

[xapantu (xapantu)]

Hum, mea culpa, it seems that it isn't fixed in LO wich is in the repositories.

[Chris Wilson (notgary-deactivatedaccount)]

LO in the repositories will eventually reflect the LO source, how long that takes remains to be seem. Nevertheless, since this isn't an issue upstream, so eventually it won;t be an issue for us, I'm closing this bug report.

[Vish (vish)]

Not invalid, that would be fix committed.

We need to make sure it is fixed and that we do indeed pull the latest LibO

[Chris Wilson (notgary-deactivatedaccount)]

Isn't it only fix committed if a fix was worked on in response to a bug report? If it was fixed independently of the filing of a report, wouldn't that make the report unnecessary, thus invalid?

[Vish (vish)]

Nope.. :)
This bug was filed on 2009-11-17, and is still present in the Ubuntu package, ie. bug is still valid in Ubuntu.
But the bug has been fixed upstream, hence we mark it as 'fix committed'. In this case it means "fix committed in upstream branch"
[Usually for desktop packages, we mark the bug 'fix committed' once it is fixed upstream. This is how the desktop team prefers, since they usually check regularly (mostly weekly?), for such fix committed bugs and pull the fixes from upstream. Makes it easier for them. But other universe packages 'fix committed' means fix has been committed in the Ubuntu release-updates/release-security repo, or some repo meant for Ubuntu. So you might wanna watch out for those universe package's status.]

Even, if it was fixed in the Ubuntu package, we can just mark such bugs as 'fix released'. :-)

[Chris Wilson (notgary-deactivatedaccount)]

Ah OK, thanks for the confirmation :)

[Timothy Arceri (t-fridey)]

Marking as fix released as fixed in LibreOffice 3.4 (Ubuntu Oneiric)
