As another workaround simply remove the openoffice-kde package.
This bug comes from the openoffice packs interacting badly with kde in
intrepid. You remove the kde support and it works again.

I am experiencing the same.
But apparently intrepid is not officially supporting openoffice 3, not
even through backports: the package giving errors to us is a personal
package among the personal package archives.
As a workaround, Sun's official openoffice from www.openoffice.org seem to work.
