>Description:
After building and installing LibreOffice 3.5.2.2, there is, first, no default printer detected on system. Following instructions on printer "installation" via the spadmin utility, I am confronted with an error screen telling me that no printers may be installed because the file system is marked read-only. Changing permissions on <install-path>/libreoffice to 775 or 777 does not resolve the problem.
This problem exists on both AMD64 and i386 systems
This problem did not exist in previous versions.
Being unable to print kinda defeats the purpose of having a wordprocessor/office suite on system.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build and install LibreOffice, attempt to configure printers in non-Cups environment.
