[RELEASE]: Bug 118914 - Upgrade package missing
I have to confess that I don't have any clue what to do with this issue [1].
We have a target in instset_native/util to build a "updatepack" but it
breaks on my Linux system when it tries to build a Germany language
pack. But I have no language selected and it should build en-US only.
Do we really have problems with an upgrade on Linux systems?
I tend to mark it as non critical. Any opinions?

ah I now understand better what this upgrade package was and yes I agree
that it would be nice to have but I think still not critical. Maybe some
experienced Linux developers can work on such a meta package to install
all other packages.
I am not so familiar with the rpm and deb packing. But it sounds not so
difficult to provide a meta package with dependencies to all other
packages ... Well if understand it correct.
Any volunteers?

Hi Ariel,
I reported that problem, yes, the upgrade package is used for old OOo to
upgrade linux package.
Now it is missing in AOO 3.4 linux package.
My concerns are:
1. "AOO 3.4 is the first release" for AOO project, we can statement it, but
I don't think OOo users would buy in it.
As one old OOo user, I prefer upgrade to AOO 3.4 directly.
2. Even we say AOO 3.4 i the first release, the easy upgrade mechanism
should be provided now for further AOO release.
There is several linux packages, now I can upgrade from OOo 3.3.0 to AOO
3.4 directly by upgrade package one by one. With "upgrade" shell scripts
offered in old OOo, I can upgrade my linux package easily. And I hope this
issue can be resolved in AOO 3.4.
Thanks.
Lily

I agree we should not spent too much time on this

Well, things are rather distro-specific.
I would suggest not to update, but to remove first OOo and then install
AOO. On the other hand, it is rather likely that some package conflicts
with libreoffice, so installing AOO will need some manual tweaking.
On Fedora, for example, there was the issue with the URE package
http://openoffice.org/projects/www/lists/users/archive/2010-11/message/581
Now AOO URE package is obsoleted by libreoffice's package:
Examining openoffice.org-ure-3.4.0-9587.x86_64.rpm:
openoffice.org-ure-3.4.0-9587.x86_64
Cannot install package openoffice.org-ure-3.4.0-9587.x86_64. It is
obsoleted by installed package 1:libreoffice-ure-3.4.5.2-5.fc16.x86_64
So you have to edit yum.conf
su -c 'vim /etc/yum.conf'
and exclude libreoffice:
exclude=libreoffice*
Some kind of conflict also exists in Ubuntu, and I guess many other
distros.
Back to the update shell script, I downloaded
OOo_3.2.1_Linux_x86-64_install-rpm-wJRE_en-US.tar.gz and tried that
script. At least on Fedora is completely broken, it does nothing. And as
installing in Linux will for sure need some manual tweaking, it is not
worth wasting the time trying to bring that script back in AOO.

do you have recognized any problems installing aOO3.4 on Linux over a
3.3. Or does anybody else have noticed any problems?

I'm not sure what the original reporter is talking about.
"In previous OO release, for example, OO 3.3, this is "update" package
under root package." seems to point to the update shell script.
If so, this is trunk/main/setup_native/scripts/update.sh delivered as
update to the solver. But I couldn't find any line on scp2 including
this shell script in the install set.
