Bug#560875: openoffice.org-filter-binfilter: upgrading OOo plugins requires quitting OOo
Package: openoffice.org-filter-binfilter
Severity: wishlist
Upgrading openoffice plugins requests that OOo be terminated before
upgrade as not doing so could possibly lead to problems.
As there are quite frequent OOo upgrades I removed all OOo features that
seem to require some sort of plugin registration.
I wonder if this should also apply to core upgrades (and thus core
packages are in error when they do not request the OOo be exited) or this
could be avoided for plugins as well.
I suspect that upgrading from OOo 2.4 to OOo 3 could be disruptive to
currently running OOo but I did not test such upgrade.
