playing video in firefox makes OOo file menu appear

One of the rather odder bugs. OOo’s file menu suddenly appears for no good reason (while playing embedded video in Firefox on another workspace). Story is that OOo has the focus while the video is playing in totem-mozplugin, totem-mozplugin seems to want to inhibit the screensaver from kicking in so sends regular Left Alt strokes to the display via XTest. If OOo has the focus, it receives the Alts, and one of its quirks is that the file menu appears on press and release of Left Alt.

DEV300_m68/DEV300_m69

callcatcher results for DEV300_m68 and DEV300_m69

Down to 864 unused methods, unused svx mostly moved into new cui lib. svtools split into svl happily removed all unused svtools methods, leaving svtools unused-free. (x86_64) bridges also unused methods free as well.

sd now accounts for 25% of all low-hanging fat

DEV300_m66

DEV300_m66 callcatcher results, 877 unused methods, down 9. Mostly due to examining the jurt ones and re-categorizing them as JNI entry points.

howto port OOo to a new arch

I’ve added a brief overview of porting OOo to the OOo wiki based on the new Linux/HPPA port which is available in today’s DEV300_m66. Written from the perspective of a Linux port where most of the work is already done, good bit more to do for a non-Linux port, but maybe helpful anyway.
