I'm using OO2rc on Mandrake 10.0.

For the last little while I've had many of the files with .odt
extensions on them change their icon from the OO icon to the
zipfile icon.  When this happens, double-clicking on them just
"unzips" them, does not load them on OO.

They can still be loaded by going through OpenOffice, but it is an
annoyance.

This may well be a Linux problem.

Whatever it is, can anyone give me some guidance here?

Thanks,

     It is probably a file association problem. If you use KDE as
I do, Applications > System > Configuration > KDE > Components >
File Associations >application. (Applications is the Gold start in
the bottom left corner.)
    The OOo 2.0 are oasis based so they all in the form of
vnd.oasis.opendocument.* where the "*" stands for formula, text,
etc.

Thanks. Unfortunately, I can get all the way through to
*>application, but vnd.oasis* does not appear to exist.  Nearest I
get is vnd.str (which refers to star) which handles all the sxw and
so on files.

Any other notions?

Did you perform this step in the .../RPMS/desktop-integration folder?
rpm -ivh openoffice.org-mandriva-menus-2.0.0-1.noarch.rpm

I keep getting the following message when I try:

Preparing... ########################################### [100%] file /usr/bin/soffice from install of openoffice.org-mandriva-menus-2.0.0-1 conflicts with file from package openoffice.org-mandriva-menus-1.9.125-1 file /usr/lib/menu/openoffice.org-mandriva-menus from install of openoffice.org-mandriva-menus-2.0.0-1 conflicts with file from package openoffice.org-mandriva-menus-1.9.15-1

I tried to track down the openoffice.org-mandriva-menus-1.9.15-1, ended up wiping out the desk integration RPM. I recovered that from the original tarball, tried again, with the same result.

I'm afraid I don't know enough to understand what this means, or how to fix it. It would seem that the 2.0.0.1 can't load because the 1.9.15-0 is in the way, and locate doesn't seem to track it down.
