Or (re-) setting the right JVM in the Options.

Which JDK did you configure OOo to use in etch?.
Might be that it changed patch between etch and lenny or completely was gone
with the upgrade/ater you upgraded.
So OOos Java framework doesn't find it anymore and you need to either set it
in the options or delete the mentioned file and then re-set it (or let OOo
set it), yes.
So if you used sun-java5-jre and after the upgrade removed it and switched
to sun-java6-jre, yes, you run into this situation.
(see http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=83140)
I tried a dist-upgrade from clean etch + java-gcj-compat + OOo to
lenny and it didn't show a javaldy error neither in the upgrade nor
in the upgraded system...
OOo until 3.1 was not able to handle the condition itself that a JDK
changed its path. Now it does...
Marking this as fixed in 3.1... (will stay open for 2.4)
Grüße/Regards,
René
