oolatex

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I installed OOolatex on my fedora 19 i686 but the equation edition
fails (from libreoffice):
BASIC runtime error.
Property or method not found: getDocumentInfo.

I tried to contact: Geoffroy Piroux ([e-mail])  
But I did not get any response.

So I have been on the website:
http://ooolatex.sourceforge.net/
where the rpm is supposed to come from, and tried to download the
package, but there is not tar or any sort of package here (only fonts).
Thus, is OOoLatex any more maintained?
If no, what is going to replace it

Thank for your help.

Regards.

I just had a look at this. Seems like the ooolatex project is pretty
much dead. However, there's another project called TexMaths that is
based on ooolatex, which seems to be alive and kicking.

There's no RPM for Fedora (I filed a RFE for it), but in the mean
time it's very easy to install the plugin into LibreOffice.

This toruble should be posted ina forum abut Open/Libre Office, I think
there you would obtain better and more accurate answers.

In my own experience, ooolatex doesn't works. But I don't care, I use LaTeX
almost everyday and that's ok for me. I'll see what about TexMaths, sounds
interesting.

Good luck
