I found this change with the last major upgrade. I would love to install LibreOffice, but the script is obviously broken.  When I click on it (lomanager from the command line) I am asked for root's pword, then it stalls, nothing.

Any idea how to edit this script to make it work?

Thanks

I don't know when I ran it yesterday it worked just fine for me.  I will have to go try it on another machine and see what the outcome is.

UPDATE: it appears as if the script for installation is indeed broken.

Thank you for taking the time to confirm it.  I was hoping I wasn't still stuck in the repo wilderness.  I looked for some errors on the CLI, but there weren't any.  It hangs with this:

Code: [Select]

delibs-4.5.5/kdesu/su.cpp : 259 ]  Read line ""
kdesu(9764)/kdesu (kdelibs) KDESu::SuProcess::ConverseSU: [ /usr/src/rpm/BUILD/kdelibs-4.5.5/kdesu/su.cpp : 259 ]  Read line "kdesu_stub
Maybe it will be fixed in a near future update.

Looking at some other posts it appears that others are having problems also. I see that Torsten posted the following

Nothing happens here, either.

I think in the script an "if" block is incomplete - line 298 should possibly contain a "fi"...?

I inserted it and it worked here, but only one person knows for sure  Wink

Yeah, there seems to be a little more than the closing of an if block. I tested it some more and couldn't get it to run correctly as a normal user (kdesu is acting up), but after an "su" to root it works fine (with the "fi" fix).

I guess we'll just let the experts sort it out and I'm sure it'll be fixed very soon.

error due to doing 5 things at the same time... 
fixed in 0.2-5

Yeah, we knew that you would get it fixed 

[pinoc]

I didn't know about this problem cause the email-notification didn't work. So while I watched TV at home Tex debugged and fixed the missing if-loop, thanks Tex!

I installed the 0.2-5 lomanager script. It appeared to run, even popping up the final dialog box that informs me that I can open LibreOffice from a main menu entry. But it does not actually install LibreOffice. When I run lomanager from terminal the last lines are:

/usr/bin/lomanager: line 697: 26249 Killed                  $ZEN2 --title="$TITLE" --info --timeout 3 --text "Verifying and extracting LO-base package..."  (wd: /tmp/LOtmp)
/tmp/LO_install.log: No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/libreoffice-*': No such file or directory


Any correction I can make, or shall I just wait for 0.2-6?

please post only once and preferably here.
thanks,

Hello

The upgraded script worked fine.  Installed and happy.

Thank you for your help.

Naturally the updated version works fine - I knew it'd be fixed soon
