Persistent System Level Custom Options?

users
#1

Hello All,Is there any way to define customized options at the "system level"
    that won't be overridden when a new version of LibreOffice is
    installed?Right now, we use xmlstarlet to make a few entries in
    /usr/lib/libreoffice/share/registry/main.xcd (and writer.xcd,
    calc.xcd).However, this directory appears to beoverwrittenwhen LibreOffice upgrades (on Ubuntu based systems using the
    LibreOffice PPAs).We can "hack around" to make sure that every user's
    registrymodifications.xcu has the values we want (again using
    xmlstarlet), but this seems like an ugly hack.Better to have
    system level settings persistent, and then IF a user's
    registrymodifications.xcu overrides this value, so be it.We also know we can modify registrymodifcations.xcu at the /etc/skel
    level, or put registrymodifications.xcu in
    /usr/lib/libreoffice/presets (however, it seems like a bug that this
    file is NOT copied to a users ~/.config/libreoffice folder ... see
    this bug:https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69609)Again, I am thinking it is the cleanest would be if there were a way
    to make the change at the system level, if a user has overridden
    then respect it.So, any pointers on how to define "persistentsystem level
    customized options" would be much appreciated.Thanks,rik-shaw
