           Summary: Update links question is not user-friendly
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: robert.roth.off at gmail.com


Bug forwarded from launchpad,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/692929
as this is present in LibreOffice too. Setting as trivial, as this seems to be
only a string change.

"When I open a certain .odp document, I get a pop-up question asking "Update
all links? Yes/No".

Doubtless, it is an important question, but what the hell does it mean? I click
"Yes" and things seem to go OK, but what am I updating? Do I really want to
update *all* links? What does "updating" _do_ to my links? Are these hyperlinks
we're talking about?

Anyhow, many questions arise, and you cannot get the answers to any of them.
The pop-up box should contain a better question with enough information so that
one can get a clue about what is going on."

The problem is with the string STR_QUERY_UPDATE_LINKS, see

details.
