dagger ~ $ type soffice
soffice is hashed (/usr/bin/X11/soffice)
dagger ~ $ ll /usr/bin/X11/soffice 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 2008-07-04 17:52 /usr/bin/X11/soffice -> 
../lib/openoffice/program/soffice*
dagger ~ $ dpkg -S /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice
openoffice.org-common: /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice


When I try to open docs with the soffice command, I get errors and openoffice 
does not start:

dagger ~ $ soffice PHY\ weekly\ status\ 20080718.ppt 
cd: 158: can't cd to ../lib/openoffice/program
/usr/bin/X11/soffice: 347: /usr/bin/X11/pagein: not found
/usr/bin/X11/soffice: 363: /usr/bin/X11/soffice.bin: not found
dagger ~ $ 

If I use ooffice instead things work ok:

dagger ~ $ ooffice PHY\ weekly\ status\ 20080718.ppt
dagger ~ $ 

/etc/mailcap has many lines that try to run "soffice". That command
doesn't appear to work, and mutt is not able to open docs properly.
