Bug#466300: openoffice.org-writer2latex: Cannot be installed
For the record, the bug I described below (with failing double
registration) is in fact http://bugs.debian.org/468202
which is already fixed.
If you have the problem, use the work around described below to
fix your package and you'll be fine for the future.
Rene told me that this bug is specifically about the "ERROR: JNI exception
occured" that Daniel and Eduard have had. Thus I reverted the severity and
tags changes, and retitle it properly.
Cheers,
