To get consistent UK spelling in OpenOffice you have to go to; "Tools>Options>Language Settings" and set the "English (UK)" as the default language setting for documents. I guess if you choose this (or any UK) locale in the Debian installer the correct behaviour would be for OpenOffice (or its installer) to notice, and use this information, so I think the behaviour is a "bug". I doubt it is a UK locale specific bug, it would need someone with a non-English default locale to confirm this. It isn't necessary to repeatedly change this setting as the submitter describes, if the steps above are followed. So it may not be as severe as believed. Hope this makes sense, and I haven't miss understood anything. Simon (not a Debian Developer).
