(Issue reopened just so that somebody will read the question at the end)
Your assessment is correct. The workaround that you suggest works.
The Powerpoint error message and help text imply that Openoffice did not convert
correctly:
"The selected file does not appear to be a valid Microsoft PowerPoint file. It
might be another kind of Microsoft Office file or a file created by using a
different product."
Some decision makers have banned use of Openoffice as a result of the belief
that the it doesn't convert properly. I know that MS should change, but is there
anything that could be done in Openoffice software?
