Bug #: 51764
Summary: : extensions page misleading, they aren't "included in
the package" on Linux
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 3.5.4 release
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Status Whiteboard: BSA
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: WWW
AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
ReportedBy: info@skierpage.com
CC: website@global.libreoffice.org
Problem description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Google search for "libreoffice import PDF"
2. Visit http://www.libreoffice.org/features/extensions/
3. It optimistically says
"Note that, in LibreOffice 3.3, many great extensions that were formerly
separate downloads have now been included in the package as standard features:
PDF Import: the PDF Import extension ..."
Yay, great!
Current behavior:
But Ubuntu's packaging of LibreOffice *does not* include these extensions.
Writer's Tools > Extension Manager lists only "Script provider for Python".
In Ubuntu PDF import is a separate package, libreoffice-pdfimport , and best as
I can tell this is not part of the default LO install.
Expected behavior:
Add a note to http://www.libreoffice.org/features/extensions/ e.g.
"Some Linux distributions provide these extensions separately; you can use your
computer's package manager or software center to install them."
Platform (if different from the browser):
Kubuntu 12.04 amd64
Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20120621 Firefox/14.0
SeaMonkey/2.11
