I am really sorry. I was hoping options in the "open with" dialog. Then I searched for a configuration file. To that point my search was unsuccesful and I felt the need to stress that the bug was rather serious for the users. (My aim was not to fix /my/ issue but maybe a /general/ issue.) I did not mean to attack anybody but I must admit that my style was quite inappropriate. I felt still more sorry for having written this when somebody pointed out to me, afterwards, that it was very easy to change file associations through file properties. (I didn't look there at first, thinking: file properties is about /one/ file at a time, like permissions, my problem is about a /type/ of file.) >> (In Gnome also, menu Applications/Bureautique/OpenOffice.org2 writer >> is proposed as first but does not function.

My only ooo2*.desktop systemwide is .local/share/applications/ooo2-calc-usercustom.desktop. I do not remember having deleted the ooo2*.desktop while trying to solve the problem but I cannot be 100 % sure. Next time I'll write down immediately what I do :-) -- Double-clicking a word processing document in Nautilus gives no result https://launchpad.net/bugs/49417 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
