[Bug 888525] [NEW] LibreOffice Missing Files For JavaScript Macros to work in 11.10

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Running LibreOffice on 11.10. Tools/macros/Organize Macros - Javascript
option is missing.

I installed 'rhino', with no effect.

For javascript to work in LibreOffice it appears I need the file
ScriptProviderForJavaScript.jar

Maverick had this file:

/usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.2/program/classes/ScriptProviderForJavaScript.jar

in openoffice.org-java-common
(http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/all/openoffice.org-java-
common/filelist)

But the file is missing from 11.10:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/all/openoffice.org-java-
common/filelist

By taking the files found in Arch Linux:

http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/libreoffice-extension-
scripting-javascript/

and putting them under /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions/script-
provider-for-javascript on 11.10, I can solve the problem.

But clearly this should not be necessary.

The files should be (but do not appear to be) provided by some package
in 11.10.
