Please test updates with OpenOffice 4.1.2-RC2
I've just enabled a test (fake!) feed for OpenOffice updates.
Please check with 4.1.2-RC2 that the menu "?" - "Check for updates"
gives you a message saying that OpenOffice 4.1.3 (remember, this is just
a test!) is available, and brings you to somewhere on the
www.openoffice.org site (the exact address depends on your language and
OS) to download the new version.
It would be good to have confirmation with all supported platforms (one
confirmation is OK), so:
- Windows
- Mac OS X
- Linux 32
- Linux 64 (confirmed OK)
If you notice anything strange, please note it in
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126480
It would also be good if, while at it, you can install an old dictionary
like
http://sourceforge.net/projects/aoo-extensions/files/1075/12/dict-de_de-frami_2012-06-17.oxt/download
or
http://sourceforge.net/projects/aoo-extensions/files/1204/10/dict-it.oxt/download
and then, in Tools - Extensions Manager - Check for updates, check that
OpenOffice correctly tells you that a newer version is available.
Regards,
Andrea.

I verified the Check for Updates in the Extension Manager on Windows 7 64
bit and it correctly flagged my downlevel extensions.
Clicking the Install button doesn't seem to do anything useful. A progress
window makes it look like a download is underway but afterwards I can't
find any extension files and restarting AOO shows that the old extensions
are still in place. Am I being stupid?

I confirmed that "Check for Updates" works on Windows 10 Pro x64 en-US.
The results are at <https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126599>.
I did not do the extensions test.

Thanks for testing. We covered all supported platforms, so the test feed
has now been retired. It is normal (and expected) that the coming RC3
will not display any suggestion for updates.
The update feeds 4.1.1 -> 4.1.2 will be gradually enabled after the
4.1.2 release.
Regards,
Andrea.
