Crossover Office and Crossover Plugin with SuSE Linux 8.2
Support knowledgebase (ubrueck_slod-8.2)
Applies to
SuSE Linux: Version 8.2
Symptom
You have both SuSE Linux 8.2 Personal or Professional Edition and SuSE Linux Office Desktop.
You want to install the program Crossover Office or Crossover Plugin on SuSE Linux 8.2 to be able to use
MS applications.
Even though you are able to install e.g. Crossover Office, the following error message is displayed
when you activate the setup to install the additional applications:
Unable to get list of installed applications:
child process exited abnormally
Background
It is not possible to install Codeweavers Crossover Office current version, 1.3.1, or the required
applications on SuSE Linux 8.2.
The same applies to Codeweavers Crossover Plugin.
Please note that, for this reason, the update of SuSE Linux Office Desktop to SuSE Linux 8.2 does not run
smoothly.
After performing the update, the programs Crossover Office and Crossover Plugin will no longer work.
The new version of Crossover (2.0), which is already available from Codeweavers, works with SuSE Linux 8.2.
