Description Paul-Sebastian Manole 2007-04-18 15:48:35 UTC
Installed:
openoffice-bin version 2.2.0
xfce4 version 4.4.1
xorg-x11 7.1
Problem:
After an upgrade on Xfce and openoffice-bin I could not start any of the openoffice applications through the Xfce menu. A graphical error window says "/home/user/%U does not exist." and after clicking OK nothing else happens.
Starting openoffice on the console works OK by entering oowrite, etc.
After checking the /usr/share/applications/openoffice.org-2.2-*.desktop files, the Exec lines include the %U that seems to be causing the problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install openoffice-bin
2. Start it from the Xfce menu

Actual Results:  
Openoffice would not start.

Expected Results:  
Openoffice would start.

The same thing later happened with Inkscape.
Now it was a %F and Inkscape continued loading only giving an error about the file not being found :)
