Bug#259332: OpenOffice 1.1.2 doesn't update profile corectly on SID

[Uwe Dippel <udippel@uniten.edu.my>]

Package: OpenOffice.org

Version: 1.1.2


Updated from 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 through apt-get yesterday. At restart, the 
'Script-file is being read...' shows up and offers two alternatives:
Create a new profile
Use the existing profile
(can't remember correct wording)

Default is: Creation of a new profile (which is IMHO the wrong default).

I clicked to use the existing one. It did a few things and closed. At 
restart it had an empty profile, though.

My analysis: The existing, latest, profile is under ~/.openoffice/1.1.1/
The 'new' profile sits under ~/OpenOffice.org1.1.0/

It is unclear, why it lives here.

How to solve it:

cd ~/OpenOffice.org1.1.0
rm -Rf *
cp -a ../.openoffice/1.1.1/* .

This copies the 1.1.1 into the folder where 1.1.2 seems to expect it.

YMMV
