Hi together,

I submitted a bug against the Debian OpenOffice package and we need your
help to solve it.

Problem description: In my Java application I use the OO bootstrap
mechanism with the classloader classes as described here:
http://codesnippets.services.openoffice.org/Office/Office.BootstrapOpenOffice.snip
In case there is no soffice executable in my PATH the bootstrap classes
won't find the OO installation.

Solutions:
- add a link /usr/bin/soffice to /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice

What makes the soffice execuable so specific that the Debian ooffice
executable does not work? Please help us answering this question to
solve this Bug in Debian.

Is it the case that on Debian there is an executable named "ooffice" in $PATH but not an executable named "soffice"? Well, the OOo Java simple bootstrap mechanism needs to find an OOo installation, and one of the things it tries out is to search for a file named "soffice" in $PATH (other things are looking at an explicitly set $UNO_PATH, for example).

Greeting,

Tobias
