[RELEASE]: propose a second RC on revision 1585426
Hi,
most of you have already noticed that we had found some serious issues
in our RC build. That means we had to fix this issues and have to
prepare a new RC2 based on revision 1585426 from AOO 410 branch.
The RC2 build is currently ongoing and will be available soon.
Besides the 2 critical issues [1] and [2] we have integrated 2 further
issues. One was already requested as showstopper [3] but declined and
with a fix in place we would take it into account for integration. The
other one [4] is an uncritical improvement to support building the src
release on newer Linux version.

I should have written experimental patch, nothing that we wanted to
integrate short in front of a release. It make more sense to integrate
it on trunk and test it more careful on all platforms. We don't want
introduce new side effects on other platforms.

The issue was not overlooked and Andre made clear that the patch is to
risky for now. See the bug description.

To Linux (Gnome 3, to be precise) users it would have been more useful
to fix scrollbars:
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121627
but if Andre can't be sure that his patch is OK, for sure I can't do
better: I only applied the patch, rebuilt and found it worked in my case.
We are back to how we can be sure that issues are not lost or
overlooked. It is not a problem specific of OpenOffice 4.1, or
OpenOffice, or Apache... Things are not bad, but we have room for
improvement.
Regards,
Andrea.
