upgrade not noticed
Last modified: 2003-09-26 10:49:33 UTC
I had OOo 1.1 RC4 installed and started setup of OOo 1.1 RC5. A message appears saying I have already 1.1 installed. When pressing help I get a message which is not helpfull either: --- The application is already installed on your system (a sversion.ini or an sofficerc file with a matching entry has been found). --- All in all, the installation program does not notice the difference between RC4 and RC5.
OOo 1.1 now comes to it's final state. It has never been inttended that similar versions can be updated: OOo 1.0.x can't update OOo 1.0.x. So it's logical that OOo 1.1.x can't update OOo 1.1.x. As we have changed the versioning to the final state '1.1.0' the update for the same version (RC4 and RC5) is obsolet. The only exception has been made for the eary RCs with version 1.1.
Upgrade for similar versions is not intended.
