The oofice script contains a wrong reference to /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice as a result the script dies when invoked Line 4 in /usr/bin/oofice is: /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice "$@" whereas the correct is: /usr/bin/soffice "$@" George
Am I right that you use AMD64? If yes, try to fix the script to use /usr/lib64/openoffice/program/soffice (if that is the right path), that should be the correct way to do it. (And tell me if it helps). Forgot about that, oops
Yes you're right amd64. /usr/lib64/openoffice contains only a share directory. which soffice --> returns /usr/bin/soffice Glad I can help Andreas. ;-)
Sorry for the multiple posting, Forgot to clarify: I have already checked this and it works OK using the correction on my first post.
Also tried: /usr/lib32/openoffice/program/soffice "$@" works as expected. I think this is what you had in mind.

This is fixed now, please give the mirrors some time, sync and re-emerge Thanks for reporting
