Close OOo and have a look at

<script.xlc>
path: /home/<user>/.openoffice.org2/user/basic/script.xlc

and

<dialog.xlc>
path: /home/<user>/.openoffice.org2/user/basic/dialog.xlc

Open the files with a text editor and remove the entries for
<TextClip.oxt>.

An example with <HistoryManager2.1.oxt>  ->

[script.xlc]
<library:library library:name="HistoryManager"
xlink:href="vnd.sun.star.expand:$UNO_USER_PACKAGES_CACHE/uno_packages/217.tmp_/HistoryManager2.1.oxt/HistoryManager/script.xlb"
xlink:type="simple" library:link="true" library:readonly="false"/>

[dialog.xlc]
<library:library library:name="HistoryManager"
xlink:href="vnd.sun.star.expand:$UNO_USER_PACKAGES_CACHE/uno_packages/217.tmp_/HistoryManager2.1.oxt/HistoryManager/dialog.xlb"
xlink:type="simple" library:link="true" library:readonly="false"/>
