Bug#277619: openoffice.org: deletes files when /tmp is full

[Matteo Calorio <void422-ghost@yahoo.it>]

Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1.1.2-5
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss

*** Please type your report below this line ***
On a disk with two partitions, / and /home/, if the first one (with /tmp/) 
gets full and a user tries to save a oowriter file (ie 80 pages of a 
Japanese2Italian translation), he gets a "/tmp/ disk full error" and his file 
(in /home/something/) is overwritten with an empty one, loosing all his work 
and making him really depressed. Wouldn't be more "conservative" to check 
disk space first and eventually letting some choices to the user? (for 
example, on /home/ there were 140 GB of free disk space)

Thanks for your attention,
  Matteo
