When installing LibreOffice 4.1.0.0beta1-1 on Mint 14 (Nadia) with Cinnamon GUI, LibreOffice isn't shown in the menu (bug #65791). When running libreoffice or libreofficedev in the terminal, it reports: command not found. When calling libreoffice or libreofficedev: Expected behavior: running libreoffice or reporting an internal error. Actual behavior: Error: command not found. Workaround: calling /opt/libreofficedev4.1/program/soffice will run libreoffice Affected platform: I can only confirm it on Mint 14 / Cinnamon X86_64 (and probably any Ubuntu based distro running Cinnamon). I don't remember facing this problem on previous releases installed on Fedora/Gnome3. P.S.: No other Libreoffice installation exists on the same machine.
Hello A. Fakhouri, *, are you sure, Cinnamon has added /opt to its default paths to search? May I ask you to post the relevant lines from your Cinnamon config file and/or ~/.bashrc? Have you tried it with a newer version than LO 4.1.0.0.beta1, or with GNOME or any other DM/DE as well? Does it work there? Sorry for the inconvenience Thomas.
Hello A. Fakhouri, *, sorry, forgot to set the status to "NEEDINFO", so catching up on it ...;) Sorry for the inconvenience Thomas.
@ Thomas, Hi Again :) This doesn't explain why simply callig libreoffice, libreofficedev or soffice from the terminal doesn't work though. Shouldn't the packages create (at least) a symlink somewhere in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin or so?
Hello A.Fakhouri, *, (In reply to comment #3) > This doesn't explain why simply callig libreoffice, libreofficedev or > soffice from the terminal doesn't work though. it should only be soffice, as this is the script, which calls "soffice.bin" ... ;) And yes, I'm wondering myself, why /opt isn't added as a default path in Linux Mint ... :( > Shouldn't the packages create (at least) a symlink somewhere in /usr/bin or > /usr/local/bin or so? No. The usual way to install not really used packages is, to install them to /opt instead somewhere below /usr (I only forgot, where this was defined ... :( ). But maybe something has changed here, what I am not aware of ... ;) Thanks for your answer Thomas.
Generally there is no system integration for beta versions. For these beta version I use my own script to launch LibreOffice. Do you have the same problem with the current stable version (4.1.0.4)? Best regards. JBF
