Bug#843980: browser-plugin-libreoffice: Plugin stops working with libreoffice packages from backports
Package: browser-plugin-libreoffice
Version: 1:4.3.3-2+deb8u5
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
I'm on stable and I've installed libreoffice 1:5.2.3~rc1-4~bpo8+1 from backports and firefox ESR. With
that installation the browser-plugin-libreoffice stopped displaying ODF and other Documents managed by
libreoffice. I suppose all that is needed is a rebuild of the browser-plugin-libreoffice for
the libreoffice version in backports to be made available via backports.
I'm not sure whether this is the correct way to report this bug, but even after reading all the
notices about bug reporting an backports I could easily find this seemed to be the post appropriate
method. Please advise me, if I did something wrong.
For example the only reason I marked this with Severity: wishlist is because this is a backport issue.
Maybe I should have kept it at serverity normal, since backports are supported and configures by
default.
I cannot build my own packages but I'm willing to test from other repositories.
Thank you,
David Ayers
