Unsupported URL on 64bit Ubuntu 12.04

[nielssteenkrogh]

Did like this:

1. apt-get install unoconv
2. apt-get install libreoffice
3. replaced the unoconv with the lastes from github

Before step 2 the unoconv failed with "url not supported" error for any document type
I was bit confused by having a libreoffice --version also after step1
But looks like the filters were not in place by then - anyway - now works perfect for docx conversions

Great to hear. We need to get Ubuntu to upgrade to the latest and maybe fix the dependencies to libreoffice is installed by default ?

Unfortunately 12.10 just got released with v0.5 :-/

Sadly, this doesn't appear to be a general fix: following 1-3 still results in the same error for me.

% unoconv -V
unoconv 0.6

started getting this again randomly haha, this time I'll make sure to make note of what fixed it for me

[dagwieers]

Is this issue still pertinent ?

If so, feel free to reopen this issue and provide us with the details from the Troubleshooting instructions using the latest unoconv from the master branch and a recent version of LibreOffice.

Thanks for the feedback !
