2012-08-14 17:30:19 Pjotr12345 summary LibreOffice in Xubuntu: the default file path for storing documents, does not take into account the localization of the system LibreOffice: the default file path for storing documents, does not take into account the localization of the system
2012-08-14 17:34:41 Pjotr12345 description I've found a bug , which only happens when you install LibreOffice in Xubuntu 12.04. The default path for storing documents, does not take into account the localization of Xubuntu. The name "Documents" is not translated in accordance with the localization of the system. So the path is always (e.g.) "/home/pjotr/Documents", whereas it should be (in my Dutch localized system) "/home/pjotr/Documenten". This causes the documents to be stored in the main user folder, in my case /home/pjotr. I've found a bug , which happens when you install LibreOffice in Xubuntu or Lubuntu 12.04. In Ubuntu and Kubuntu 12.04 this same bug takes a different shape; more about that later. The default path for storing documents, does not take into account the localization of Xubuntu. The name "Documents" is not translated in accordance with the localization of the system. So the path is always (e.g.) "/home/pjotr/Documents", whereas it should be (in my Dutch localized system) "/home/pjotr/Documenten". This causes the documents to be stored in the main user folder, in my case /home/pjotr. In Ubuntu and Kubuntu the file path is wrong, too: in a Dutch localized system, it becomes "/home/pjotr/Documenten/Documents". As the final folder in the path does not exist, documents will be stored by LO in the right place, namely the first folder in the path that does exist, in this case "/home/pjotr/Documents". It's still a configuration error, though...
