I have been trying Abiword1.99.3 with Libranet, and have had quite a lot of
success.
I downloaded the .rpms for Abiword, Aspell, clipart, plugins-impexp and
plugins-tools, and converted them to .debs with Alien. (I have such
horrendous problems with installing tarballs, that I keep clear of them as
much as possible!)
Abiword, Aspell and clipart all appear to work correctly. I can run them
without any problems. However, the plugins are missing.
They are installed in /usr/lib/AbiWord2.0/plugins, but the Abiword Plugin
Manager is blank. If I try to install the plugins from their directory, I get
the error msessage that it "Could not load/activate the plugin".
The latest Abiword is so good, that I would like to use it as my main word
processor.
I also run SuSE, and have installed 1.99.3 in that distro. The plugins are all
there in the Plugin Manager.
Can anyone offer any advice, please?
Many thanks
Keith
