When working with the template dialog (File | New | Templates and Documents) as a non-priveleged user, clicking on any folder or file in the middle box causes OO to segfault. This happens when running OpenOffice as a non-priveleged user, but not when running as root. I've renamed ~/.ooo-2.0 and the old .openoffice directory, which doesn't help, so this must be some sort of permissions issue. This doesn't happen with the normal file list dialog (File | Open).

If I open a fresh, nonpriv user account and run OO from said account, this does _not_ happen, so something in my existing desktop setup or file structure is causing this problem. in OO 1.1.x I developed and used a number of templates with no problems.
Looks like a problem in your setup, as you pointed out yourself. So not a lot we can do here. Maybe this is a permission problem? Do you have a dir in your templates path, which is not accessible? Still it shouldn't crash in such a case...
Works here, can't reproduce, works for other, so closing
The problem appears to have been transient. Although it was reproducable when I reported it, it's no longer so. Your closure is appropriate. Thanks!
