I was using uno/pyuno for converting odt documents to pdf. I'm using <a href="http://code.google.com/p/docvert/source/browse/trunk/core/lib/pyodconverter/pyodconverter.py" rel="nofollow">pyodconverter</a><br /><br />Recently it stopped working. I traced the problem to openoffice.org-ure being installed on /usr/lib when openoffice was installed on /opt. I guess this happened because of an update on openoffice.org-ure from version 1.6 to 3.1. Version 3.1 is known to be <a href="http://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2010/howto-install-openoffice-org-3-2-on-fedora-12-centos-5-4-red-hat-rhel-5-4/" rel="nofollow">incompatible</a> with OpenOffice 3.2.<br /><br />So I solved the problem by:<br /><br />1- Removing all OpenOffice related packages, including openoffice.org-ure in the incorrect version (3.1)<br />2- Reinstalling OpenOffice on /usr/lib which seems to be the expected directory<br />3- Blocking openoffice.org-ure updated as described <a href="http://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2010/howto-install-openoffice-org-3-2-on-fedora-12-centos-5-4-red-hat-rhel-5-4" rel="nofollow">here</a><br /><br />Hope this helps !<br /><br />MichelMichelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07727710613649845184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4186074565961060437.post-73612442823569779492010-03-08T00:09:09.552-07:002010-03-08T00:09:09.552-07:00Shadetyler-
