Bug 125852

Description:
LibO 6.2 and 6.1 can be installed side-to-side on linux systems using the TDF provided packages.

If one does so:
- only one version can be run at once
- the two versions use the same user profile

What I get from this is that the two versions should be compatible profile-wise.

Unfortunately, after having used LibO 6.2, the profile gets changed in some way that it is not anymore fully compatible with LibO 6.1.

Specifically, if you use the Extension manager to update an extension with LibO 6.2, then it becomes impossible to use the extension manager to update or install extensions with LibO 6.1: the extension manager from LibO 6.1 errors out.

I have seen this while updating the Texmaths extension.

This may become an issue for those trying LibO 6.2 and then deciding to go back to 6.1.  Obviously, resetting the profile fixes the problem.

The issue is probably a very minor one now that LibO 6.3 is approaching and LibO 6.1 has reached EOL. However, if the compatibility breakage in LibO 6.2 was unintentional, it may still be worth looking at it.
