Public bug reported:
The following problem occured on a Feisty i386 machine with all updates
until Oct. 30th: When I tried to open an Openoffice Writer file from my
desktop clicking on it, OO opened it, but then froze: I still could see
the content of the file, but scrolling, clicking or performing any
action did not work. I only could minimize the window, if I closed it, I
had to "Force Quit".
Running ooffice from the console 'ooffice file.odt', most files were opened and
I could use them. But still with some of them, writer froze. I could also open
most files by opening it from the file => open dialogue.
Running ooffice from the console freezing didn't give an error.
This started with an update maybe 2 months ago, uninstalling and
reinstalling openoffice did not solve the problem, it was present for
all users of this machine. But after deleting the .openoffice.org2
directory in the home directories the problem didn't occur any more.
** Affects: openoffice.org (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
