Guys, if you can sort out that path, post the file here (gzipped) and I will put it into Woof.

I suppose that putting it into Woof won't cause any problem, and it will mean all the existing OO SFS's will work.

Terryphi, thanks for the great detective work tracking this down. It really was a show-stopper.

no entry at /root/.packages/user-installed-packages

but /root/.packages/coreutils_8.5.files is there and complete

I still guess its with the "|" for the .packages entries and can not expect ubuntu to recocnize puppy and there might be pets outside that are missing some data

Barry: Do not put my fix for the OO crash into Woof.

Things are more complicated because some people are now using go-OO sfs or LibreOffice sfs. I have done a quick test and my fix does not work for these. Code from go-OO has been incorporated in LibreOffice. LibreOffice creates its own directory but go-OO uses /.openoffice.org so there is a possibility that it would break go-OO.

Generally, users should be discouraged from having more than one of these office suites on their systems and should clean up well after removing.

as I told on page 2 I had been interessted to compile busybox also after recocnizing that there is a difference with busybox 1.8.* that are listened in the 4 series and that had been troubling me once because the 1.15 is not listed as 1.15 but 20090725. I thought 1.8 would be 1.18 Embarassed

worsest only : modem modules hadn't been loaded.

And there are many links to busybox and make install overwrote a lot. The system still booted but with very few drivers.
Today I detected that even `sed` had been replaced....

First time this error message popped up I was confused but now I got myself adjusted to it.

On my system here that uses an ATI Radeon 3450 video card, all three office packages crash when using XORG.

However, GoOffice and LibreOffice both work OK when using XVESA in k2.6.34.6

The above 2 must have some adverse effect on the standard OO installation, because it has borked completely.

This ties in with what Terryphi has been saying about cleaning up properly after deleting an OO family version.

OK. Here is LibreOffice spreadsheet and OpenOffice writer both running happily side by side on Wary '30 kernel. Now THAT'S what I am talkin' about! Transparency is enabled as you can see, but it borks mplayer.
Quirky13 can do this too, but mplayer is NOT borked.
