[RELEASE][3.4.1]: propose new snapshot based on revision 1372282
Hi,
after a short break I have checked the current situation and where we are.
We had identified some further issues for 3.4.1 while we continued
testing the latest snapshots. These issues are now fixed and I would
like to propose a new snapshot build based on revision 1372282.
Issues that will be fixed in this new snapshot:
- OO crashes when I Print
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=120389
- Remove the "Browser Plug-in" tab page from the Options dialog
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=120518
- Starting OpenOffice with "-nodefault" parameter should not open the
StartCenter
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=120501
The last 2 issues matched not directly our criteria for blocker issues
but after reviewing the issues and the fix I decided to integrate them
in 3.4.1 as well.
The reason for integrating the last issue is quite simple and I believe
that we probably share this view. We want that AOO is used in
combination with other software systems and as backend service for
document conversion etc. From my point of view it make sense to
integrate this fix in 3.4.1.

Full install sets for en-US and language packs for all supported
languages (Linux 32 and 64 bits) are uploaded and listed on
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/f8KoAQ
I'll remove r1369110, it's 12 GB and I still need to upload all full
install sets (ca. 10.4 GB) and I'm not sure if there is a quota at
people.apache.org. I'll keep r1369843.

All OK for me so far with the moderate testing I did. I did a update over
the original 3.4.1 we publicized toward the end of July -- don't recall the
exact version.
I took a look at the current bug list and ascertained that all was OK with
the fixes.
So far, so good.

Here's what I see in '282. It is good so far.
I tested 6 different VM's with the following scenarios, all 32-bit:
- Fresh install on XP
- Fresh install on Windows 8
- Fresh install on Windows 9 Preview
- Install over OOo 3.3.0 on XP
- Install over AOO 3.4.0 on XP
- Install co-existing with LO 3.6.0 on XP
I didn't do heavy testing, but verified the basic operations, and
verified some of the release blocker fixes.
I'll continue doing informal testing of the above.
No problems so far, except for Windows 8, where the lack of a digital
signatures leads to a very poor user experience. In the default
configuration, downloading with I.E and installing will cause Windows
to warn the user 3 separate times, with a scary message about how the
software might harm their system. In one case the UI makes it look
like the user cannot install at all. They need to expand a collapsed
section in the dialog to see the "install anyways" option.
I realize there is nothing we can at this point, but we should try
help the users deal with this as much as we can. I'll try repeating
this to get some screen shots we can use to explain this.
I did one further VM, with Kaspersky antivirus, with latest signatures
to verify the installer and installed image. We should probably do
that on Mac as well, just to make sure nothing sneaked in to our build
machines. Any volunteers?

I have of course tested the MacOS version, a basic test run only.
I did a complete build on MacOS with the src release and build all
languages that we include in the release.
