Description Kami 2012-01-22 05:23:34 UTC

If you install gallery that contains external links (instead of embedding vector graphic) to jpeg or png files the external files can not viewed from LibreOffice. The path of such images has wrong value. For example:

The real path of gallery element is:
~/.config/libreoffice/3/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/lu1ik7gv.tmp_/OOOP-accessories-2.7.0.0.oxt/gallery/Draws/People/Baboo1.png after the gallery extension installation however the LibO search it in:
~/.config/libreoffice/3/user/user/gallery/Draws/People/Baboo1.png that causes uninsertable gallery element.

Few users also has same problem under windows too:

Hi Kami,

Do you have such a gallery (or link to it) for me, so that I can test?
Thanks - Cor

Please read this message in its entirety before responding.

Your bug was confirmed at least 1 year ago and has not had any activity on it for over a year. Your bug is still set to NEW which means that it is open and confirmed. It would be nice to have the bug confirmed on a newer version than the version reported in the original report to know that the bug is still present -- sometimes a bug is inadvertently fixed over time and just never closed.

If you have time please do the following:
1) Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (preferably 4.2 or newer).
2) If it is present please leave a comment telling us what version of LibreOffice and your operating system.
3) If it is NOT present please set the bug to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment telling us your version and Operating System

Please DO NOT
1) Update the version field
2) Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
3) Set the bug to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case)
