Try to locate via:

$  locate registered_packages.db

Mine is 644 (-rw-r-r--)

I'm not sure I do either. But make sure that everything in your
~/.openoffice.org2 folders are are owned by you and 0755 (drwxr-xr-x).
To do that use the chown recursive (-R) command to change. I use:

cd ~
sudo chown <username>:<usergroup> -R ~/.openoffice.org2
sudo chmod -R 0755 ~/.openoffice.org2

If you still have difficulties, I would recommend renaming
~/.openoffice.org to ~/x-.openoffice.org2-x and then purge and reinstall
OOo. That may be faster than trying to hunt down the permissions
problem, and it is a permissions problem w/nothing to do with language
settings etc. Renaming ~/.openoffice.org will allow OOo to set up a new
~/.openoffice.org on reinstallation, and if you have any special
settings in the old ~/x-.openoffice.org2-x you can then copy them back
into the new.
