Text language and spellcheck in OnlyOffice create problems after an update

Support Snap/Flatpak
1

I updated my LINUX Manjaro (Plasma KDE) yesterday, and problems started with OnlyOffice.
The language of the document is set to USA, spell check also, language of the text also, but as soon I hit any key on the keyboard the text language changes to Polish, and all words are underlined in red. Setting the text language to USA-English is reversed to Polish at the first stroke of any alphanumeric key on the keyboard. This is pretty annoying, and it looks like a serious flaw of the most recent update.

Which version of onlyoffice are you using — onlyoffice-desktopeditors from the repo, or onlyoffice from the AUR?

version 8.3.3.21 (deb)
and repository: flathub

onlyoffice-desktopeditors

Any reason why you’re not using the repo version?

6

No. I just updated the whole system, and the problem started. I did not care about the source. It never mattered before.

Well, it does matter. FlatPaks and Snaps are containerized applications. They run isolated from the main system, and they carry their own versions of the shared libraries. Updating the system will therefore not have any effect on the Snap or FlatPak.

I did not know. Thank you for this lesson. I should install/reinstall OnlyOffice, and should fix the problem, right?

I would try the repo versions first and see how they behave. :thinking:

Any chance you can provide me with a terminal command to install OnlyOffice from the source you deem appropriate?

Of course, but then, it would be advisable to uninstall the FlatPak first.

In order to get the one from the repo… :point_down:

sudo pacman-mirrors -f && pacman -Syu onlyoffice-desktopeditors

Be sure to let it take the time it needs,and do not interrupt the process. :wink:

As you wish, Master Aragorn.
Problem solved.

I meant the language thing, though…

A document opened, and now it keeps the USA-English language setting without any problems.
Big thanx [from Japan].
