Not quite correct. The file picker was broken for a long time. And Trinity did nothing to patch it until openSUSE people fixed it finally.
Interesting that I never noticed a problem with it (???)
This problem has been discussed many times even on this list.
Link please?
I actually do not understand why do you ask me since you was one of the people who participated in the discussion: http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::1693
Ah, OK, now I know what you are referring to.
That is not a problem in the file picker code itself; rather it is a problem in the OpenOffice.org build options, which are set by the distribution that provides the binary packages (in this case Debian). Out of courtesy to my Ubuntu userbase I have rebuilt OpenOffice with the KDE3 integration module turned on; no changes to the file picker code itself required.
That being said, I understand this is not a long term solution. I will respond shortly to your other message with more information.
