Universal Go-oo 3.2 build available

February 12th, 2010 by

I am happy to announce that the universal Go-oo 3.1.1 build is available for Linux (i586, x86_64), MAC OSX Intel, and Windows[*]. See also download and installation instructions. The builds include many upstream and Go-oo fixes.

Go-oo team hopes that you will be happy with this release. Though, any software contains bugs and we kindly ask you to report them, so that we could fix them in the future releases. Also you could send feedback to the ooo-build@lists.freedesktop.org mailing list or contact us on irc.freenode.net, channel #go-oo.

[*] We are sorry but the bundled extension with dictionaries is broken in the GoOo-3.2-10.exe Windows build. Please remove it in Tools/Extension Manager… and install the fixed one. Only this single fix will be included in the upcomming GoOo-3.2-11.exe build. We are going to upload it the following week. You need not update to the 3.2-11 build if you re-install the extension manually or if you do not use the spell checker. Only Windows users are affected by this bug. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

PS: I feel a bit schizophrenic. I want to blog about the openSUSE builds at planetsuse and about the universal build at planet.go-oo. Both builds are based on the same sources, so the schedule is almost the same. We only do more alpha and beta builds for openSUSE because it is so easy with the Build Service.

The openSUSE OOo team hopes that you will be happy with this release. Though, any software contains bugs and we kindly ask you to report them, so that we could fixed them in the future releases.

Other information and plans:

We have also updated the OpenOffice_org-LanguageTool extension to the version 1.0.
