Hi Rene and also api.openoffice.org-list,

short description for the API list (esp. Jürgen Schmid): in February you
told me how to use the class loaders for bootstraping OO. You will
remember it looking at this code snippet:
http://codesnippets.services.openoffice.org/Office/Office.BootstrapOpenOffice.snip

Now I reportet a Debian because linking the soffice executable solves
the problem. We ask for your opinion.

Not more as I did up to now. Removing the link from /usr/bin/soffice to
/usr/lib/openoffice/programm/soffice stops the class loaders from working.

API-List: What makes the soffice exec so special that it only works with
the soffice exec? Your help is appreciated.

Greetings, Tobias
