Title:
ubiquity advertises OpenOffice.org, but Natty provides LibreOffice
instead
Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Ubiquity 2.5.11 (running from today's daily Natty Desktop i386 Install
CD, which has md5sum e8106eddd8f76212ea6861511d1e4586) advertises
Ubuntu's ability to create and edit office (for example, word
processing) documents with OpenOffice.org. The attached screenshot
shows this. However, starting in Natty, Ubuntu provides LibreOffice
instead of OpenOffice.org, rendering this obsolete and also confusing
to users who will expect OpenOffice.org to be included in their system
after being shown it by the installer.
In Natty, Ubiquity should advertise Ubuntu's office document creation
and editing abilities as being due to LibreOffice, instead of
OpenOffice.org.
In previous releases, many if not most users installing Ubuntu were
already familiar with OpenOffice.org. But it seems quite likely that
many users will be unfamiliar with LibreOffice when they install
Natty, which means that is especially important (or at least would be
especially useful) for Ubiquity to show it.
