I installed libreoffice on a bare-bones server, to run headless - just doing 'apt-get install libreoffice'. By default, the EPS image support was broken in a non-obvious way - templates with EPS files would open, but the image would be a blank/transparent frame and no error was generated. It turned out that I needed the 'ghostscript' package as well. For whatever reason, that wasn't installed by default on the server, and installing libreoffice didn't pull it in. I would suggest that this be a dependency of the package; while for desktop users it's probably not an issue, and therefore is a small portion of the userbase, until LO gets native EPS support this could confuse people. ** Affects: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1402358 Title: EPS files don't import correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1402358/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
