--- Comment #45 from orcmid <[email protected]> ---
I've looked at Manfred's manifest.xml, and I'll look at some of the other
files, such as the one that doesn't confirm on other platforms.

I don't see anything obvious just yet.  I think Ariel's suspicions about a
change in some dependency is likely, although it could also be an edge case
that other differences have brought to the surface.

Here's an unusual request.  Because the situation on being able to open some of
these files can be desperate, I recommend the following actions for Mac OSX
users who have the problem:

 1. Obtain and install the Mac release of LibreOffice 4.3.  This package should
install along-side Apache OpenOffice without any problems.  See if the files
open with the password there.  (This will also be a fresh install instead of a
roll-back, so that symptom should not be a factor as it seems to be with AOO.)
    If the files open with LibO, that is at least an immediate workaround.
    If the files open with LibO, we can work to figure out what difference in
dependencies might account for the difference with AOO.
    If the file also fails to open with LibO, we need to look for a common-mode
problem in both implementations.

 2. If there is no joy with LibreOffice 4.3, try NeoOffice.  Same challenges.

 3. Confirm results here, positive or negative, so that we have more clues to
this situation.
