Well normally ooffice, oowriter, ... are bash-scripts or even perl (on mandrake) starting soffice to popup the appropriate OpenOffice-Application.
On Mandrake for example one would have to same problem because: ooffice2.0 does the following: ----------------8<---------------- #!/usr/bin/perl -w my $SystemInstallDir = '/usr/lib/ooo-2.0'; ... exec "$SystemInstallDir/program/soffice", @ooo_argv ----------------8<---------------- which means soffice is not in my path. So the bootstrap can not work by default.
