Bug#470397: writer2latex: w2l fails with errors when java alternative set to java-gcj
Package: writer2latex
Version: 0.5-6
w2l fails with errors when java alternative is set to java-gcj.
If you change your java alternative to java-6-sun everything works fine.
I tested it with several of my documents. However, In order to provide you
with a test case the output bellow uses the sample openoffice document
provided by the package writer2latex-manual.
