I confess to having no clue about .oxt whatsoever, but assuming that now the pdfimport extension is binary code that eventually ends up dlopened by the soffice.bin process, how does turning it into a normal LO component, which is binary code that eventually ends up dlopened by the soffice.bin process, change anything? It shouldn't matter whether we open a pdf by finding out we have this filter that can handle it or by finding out we have this extension that can handle it. -- Lubos Lunak l.lu...@suse.cz _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
