This bug is due to some kind of weird interaction of the PATH being set
and symlinks being relative (i think that is the correct word). When
/usr/bin/X11 comes early in the PATH the problem happens if
/usr/bin/soffice is a symlink to ../lib/openoffice/program/soffice but
not if it is a symlink to /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice. Since the
X11 symlink causes it to look in /usr/bin/lib/openoffice/program/soffice
(I think?)
Reassigning to xorg, not sure what really should be done about this bug
though.
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: openoffice.org => xorg
Status: Incomplete => New
