Description dankegel 2003-08-05 16:11:28 UTC 
Mandrake 9.1 does not appear to ship libpng.so.2, which causes the error

/usr/local/OOo-1.1/program/crash_report.bin: error while loading
shared libraries: libpng.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory

when the gui crash reporter tries to run.
This came up in issue 17223.

On RH8, it looks like libpng.so.2 and libpng.so.3 are in separate packages:
$ rpm -q -f /usr/lib/libpng.so.2
libpng10-1.0.13-5
$ rpm -q -f /usr/lib/libpng.so.3
libpng-1.2.2-6

so it looks like the gui crash reporter is going to fail
on distros that don't include libpng10!  Looks like
OpenOffice can't rely on the system to provide libpng10.
I'd say that's one more library that has to be bundled
into the OpenOffice package.

Joost->Dan: The crash report tool doesn't even work in 1.1 RC2 on
Solaris and on Linux. Our release engineers made some faults within
the development environment when compiling the crash report binaries
for the OpenOffice.org snapshot build. Please stay tuned and wait for
1.1 RC3 build where I will care about the crash reporter...
