I have also Lion here, and OOo works fine. There are same
"incompatibilities with scroll bars. But they are only viewing bugs.

There is a report here of a user having problems with OOo 3.3 on Lion
apparently before LibreOffice was even installed :

Sorry, if I appeared to jump to a conclusion. It is just that I have seen different reports of either LO or OOo not running if the other is running.
There was one in the OOo users list about portable LO not starting because OOo was active. So there are conflicts. No implication that this is intentional just a fact of originally being the same codebase. Registrations on various systems is hard. I've had the "joy" of writing installation code for .Net assemblies and that is not fun.

Dave

Forget that question, a search in Finder reveals that the plist files
also have different names.

Hi Dave,
LibO uses ~/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice (not
OpenOffice.org) - please don't jump to conclusions just yet. Beyond
that, we always welcome patches to make LibreOffice even more
distinct. :)

I know that. But developpers shall to think that end-users can install both on computer.
Maybe the install process should be to test if other is here before.

This LibO and OOo thinking they are the same application is a continual problem. It would have been nice if LibO made themselves distinct.

Thanks Juergen to help me,
The user has given me some details to reproduce.
This seems appear when LibO is already installed.
If you add OOo, the install process try to retreive the LibO profile
The problem is fixed if LibO is uninstalled.

any problems so far.
Do you have more details what the their problem is?
