Bug#377189: openoffice.org: prepends working directory before URLs, can't find file

[Eamonn Hamilton <EAMONN.HAMILTON@saic.com>]

Package: openoffice.org
Version: 2.0.3-2
Severity: normal


Hi.

When attempting to start openoffice with a url ( as happens from
evolution, say ), it reports being unable to find the file but the path
shown has the current working directory prepended to it , e.g. :

cd /random
oowriter file:/tmp/test.doc

results in

/random/file:/tmp/test.doc does not exist

It doesn't seem to be the oowriter perl wrapper, that correctly passes
file:/tmp/test.doc to the ooqstart binary, which appears to simply
prepend the working directory
