I just emerged the latest version of openoffice (mainly for KDE4 integration) and I wanted to refresh the extensions (expecting a new version of the PDF import). I click on Tools/Extension... menu item, then on the add... button, navigate to /usr/lib64/openoffice/share/extension/install, and when I click on pdfimport.oxt I get the following error (back translated from italian, so forgive if it's not exactly correct): "Add extension(s): The parameter to start the operation on file:/usr/lib64/openoffice/share/extension/install/pdfimport.oxt is not allowed." Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start openoffice 3.1.1 2. Try to load a bundled extension Actual Results: The error in the description.

After reading bug #283687 I tried loading the extension from the command line with: ooffice /usr/lib64/openoffice/share/extension/install/pdfimport.oxt and it worked. Maybe these two bugs are related.
Another KDE4 file selector problem, should be fixed now, rebuild OOo if you still get it
