Re: dangerous openoffice behaviour

thank you so much for the prompt attention -

the issue has been resolved with the new open office release, 2.3.1.

I sincerely appreciate the reply, and hope not to have inconvenienced
anyone.

best wishes,

So far, a pain. But, then, the file on the pc where it is located
becomes empty, 0 kb, so, in essence, openoffice, or vfs, or open
office gtk, or whatever, eats files on the network. Now, serious and
urgent.

Sounds like an OpenOffice issue to me. Or maybe a distro/packager issue.


Since I am not a programmer, I cannot tell if the problem is OO,
somewhere in the vfs mime id, or wherever. Funny enough, the 2.1 OO
has no problems, unless I update the libgmime to 2.2.11-1, so I have a
feeling the problem lies in the nautilus or gnome networking or mime
identification, but how, I have no clue.

GMime is totally unrelated. There is absolutely no way, updating
libgmime could affect this at all. It is a library for creation and
parsing of MIME messages (read: email).
