Basically, the menu entries should directly use
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice wrapper.
** Description changed:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org-common
Hello,
I just tried to know where the "openoffice" executable was
and I found a useless shell link which may slowdown the startup:
1. /usr/bin/openoffice:
file system symlink to "/usr/bin/ooffice"
2. /usr/bin/ooffice:
shell script which just launch the wrapper
"/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice"
3. /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice:
the final wrapper shell script
/usr/bin/ooffice:
---
#!/bin/sh
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice "$@"
---
I think the startup time will be slighty shorter
if we avoid to launch a temporary shell (step #2)
by making the symlink (step #1) point directly to the wrapper script (step
#3).
Regards.

+ The desktop menu use the below command:
+ "ooffice -writer %U"
+
+ By using which, it seems to point to /usr/bin/ooffice
+ which isn't the final wrapper script.
+
+ Thus this bug is valid.

too many links for reaching the openoffice wrapper
