Hi,

Mandriva 2009.1.

For the detail of what's new in Mandriva 2009.1, please see:

If you want to *upgrade* your Mandriva, I recommend to read this thread:

 > Renaming etc/rc5.d/SS99messagebus to SS96messagebus

And here are several notes related to ERP5.

* pdftk cannot be installed, that is required for PDFForm.
See https://qa.mandriva.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=pdftk for further 
discussion. Maybe you can get libgcj8 (or lib64gcj8) and libgcj8-base
binaries from 2008.1/main/release repository manually and install them 
to satisfy requirements for installing pdftk package (not tested).

* oood does not work without patching uno.py
See https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=49064 for further 
discussion. For now you need to patch uno.py manually as written there, 
or you can use OpenOffice.org's official binary instead, that includes 
python2.3 and does not have this problem.
