Bug#397857: openoffice.org-common: Script /usr/bin/openoffice does not work with xvfb-run



Package: openoffice.org-common
Version: 2.0.4-5
Severity: normal

If you try to start OOo with script /usr/bin/openoffice from under
xvfb-run, it fails like this:
jwarnier@mymachine:~$ xvfb-run -a /usr/bin/openoffice -invisible
-nologo
jwarnier@mymachine:~$ /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin X11 error:
Can't open display: :99
   Set DISPLAY environment variable, use -display option
   or check permissions of your X-Server
   (See "man X" resp. "man xhost" for details)

While it works when started directly from
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.

I must admit I did not yet take a look at script openoffice to see where
it could mess with $DISPLAY.

Thanks
