Dear Friends at gnome,

Open office 1:2.3.0-dfsg-2 running on up to date sid -

If I open a file on a different computer on the network, the file opens,
and the drop down box where is should say "default" or whatever reads
"preformatted text" and there is no content.

So far, a pain.  But, then, the file on the pc where it is located
becomes empty, 0 kb, so, in essence, openoffice, or vfs, or open office
gtk, or whatever, eats files on the network.  Now, serious and urgent.

This occurs irrespective of extension, i e, .doc or .odt, are equally
gone forever.

Since I am not a programmer, I cannot tell if the problem is OO,
somewhere in the vfs mime id, or wherever.  Funny enough, the 2.1 OO has
no problems, unless I update the libgmime to 2.2.11-1, so I have a
feeling the problem lies in the nautilus or gnome networking or mime
identification, but how, I have no clue.

Nonetheless, this is a serious, serious issue, since before I figured it
out, I lost data.

I would be more likely to presume I am the only person affected if it
only happened on one install, but I have tried two or three different
installs, and the result is the same.

Best,
Martin
