Grep for truetype fonts.  From the README.Debian:

Setup does not work - abort
---------------------------
If you see a message like this:
  $ openoffice
  running openoffice.org setup...
  setup failed.. abort

You may have a font that causes setup to crash.  Run this command to find out
which was the last font that setup tried to read:

  cd /usr/lib/openoffice/program; (LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. strace setup.bin 2>&1) | grep open |
grep .ttf | tail

You will see something like:

  open("/path/to/<font file name>.ttf", O_RDONLY) = 12

Try moving that file away temporarily to see if it is the cause of the crash.

-----------

Does that help?
