Strange, do you still have these problems?
Have you discovered a system in the behavior? For example, does it open the
broken version only for a particular file type?

First, I would check the "Help/About OpenOffice.org" dialog of the two
versions. It try talk about the same version or...
Second, I would try to search all installed openoffice packages and look for
duplicities:
rpm -qa | grep -i openoffice
Third, I would verify the installation of the packages:
rpm -V `rpm -qa | grep -i openoffice`
If it does not show any problem, we might need to debug it...
