Bug#298470: /usr/bin/openoffice: Ignores DISPLAY variable when already running
Package: openoffice.org-debian-files
Version: 1.1.2-5+1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/openoffice
I have an openoffice session running on thoth, a server. From diogenes,
a client, I execute "ssh -X thoth -l rw" and then run openoffice. It
picks up the running copy of openoffice on thoth, which I expect, but
doesn't open a window on diogenes. But shouldn't the running copy of
openoffice be told to open a window on the current display?
