Bug#335742: openoffice.org: NFS mounts are unwritable

[Mike Brodbelt <m.brodbelt@acu.ac.uk>]

Package: openoffice.org
Version: 2.0.0-1
Followup-For: Bug #335742


I am also seeing this bug. Opening a file within an NFS mounted
filesystem causes OpenOffice to show the file in read-only mode, and
remove the margins and various other editing widgets from the
application window. Any attempt to save a document to an NFS mount
results in an error dialog that contains the text:-

Error saving the document Filename.odt:
General Error.
General input/output error.

This makes the application extremely awkward to use in an office type
environment, and is a huge step backwards in functionality from the
OpenOffice.org 1.1.4 package it replaced for me.

Mike.
