That's indeed similar in that in both cases loading a document corrupts
OOo to not properly show some diacritics from there on.
A quick test with your sample1.odt from the mentioned bug, however,
shows that those corruption states are different: after opening your doc,
a-umlaut may still work,
OK, I tried to narrow the thing down to a minimal witness.
Using the attached file I can deterministically reproduce
using these steps:
1. Delete or move away ${HOME}/.openoffice.org2
2. Open the attached file:
$ ooffice broken.odp
3. While this document is open, also other documents show
Even without looking at the file I know what bug you are now referring
to and it is already filed upstream. It is a known issue and will likely
be fixed for OOo 3.0. Thanks for updating with exactly how to reproduce
the issue. :-)
Thanks!

Here is a similar file with the difference that broken.odp has been
created from a larger document by deleting everything but what
caused the bug, whereas OK.odp has been created from scratch.

Hi Chris,
my apologies for answering late - as I said I'm a little busy at the
moment.
I'm glad, that you are taking care of this bug, but since upgrading to

menu as well as displayed correctly in text files.

Sounds like this bug is affecting systems with special fonts installed. A
workaround seems to replace the ubuntu packages of ooo with the packages from
the ooo-website.
I think there is no chance for a backport for gutsy, so we will have to wait
for hardy...

I must be suffering from the same bug. Here is how I described it, for
whatever it is worth:
Recently (as of about 2 months, perhaps when I upgraded to Gutsy... not
sure) my openoffice files with extended ascii characters, àéë etc, have
been displaying as weird characters: ç is displayed as Á; à
A work around, that seems to be working (around) for the moment:
uninstall the msttcorefonts.
Another user suggested deleting ~/.fontconf and doing some fc-font magic
as well.
But so far the uninstall is working for me. (I will see what happens
tomorrow.)

Well, that workaround has the problem of eliminating still other

I can confirm the bug as well (see screenshot in OOo Calc). It really
inhibits my daily work with OpenOffice.org so when I have to print a
file or generate a PDF I have to switch to my Windows which is very,
