Package: unoconv Version: 0.9.0-0sero1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
pyuno in LibreOffice 26.2 has removed unohelper.absolutize in favor of uno.absolutize to avoid duplication. https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/history/core/pyuno/source/module/unohelper.py unoconv makes use of unohelper.absolutize, which leads to a crash with File "/usr/bin/unoconv", line 1003, in convert inputurl = unohelper.absolutize(self.cwd, unohelper.systemPathToFileUrl(inputfn)) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ AttributeError: module 'unohelper' has no attribute 'absolutize' This bug is also discussed here: https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/is-this-unoconv-issue-a-regression-in-libreoffice/131807 Patch against unoconv 0.9.0 (not currently in Debian): Description: Use uno.absolutize instead of unohelper.absolutize pyuno in LibreOffice 26.2 dropped unohelp.absolutize in favor of uno.absolutize to avoid duplication.

BTW, unoconv is deprecated upstream in favor of unoserver: https://github.com/unoconv/unoconv/commit/36f1435e8becf29e94b21e90339c32238ccb090b I've made a preliminary package of unoserver as well. It can be found here: https://app.box.com/s/mlmgk0w3wl7rxwfb8hn59kcfzym2u75f However, unoserver doesn't provide all the features of unoconv as of yet. Besides, they are quite different.
