Package: openoffice.org-writer
Version: 2.0.4.dfsg.2-1
Severity: important

The command

$ oowriter <file>.doc

makes a window appear that says: "/path/to/<file>.doc does not exist".
<file> contains a char whose value is e9 in hexadecimal, which is an e
acute (é) in iso 8859-1 encoding. My locale is de_DE.UTF-8, so the
resulting string <file>.doc is perhaps invalid (in UTF-8). I consider
that oowriter should nonetheless be able to open the file since it is a
valid name for the file sytem.

I ended up having such a file name by unzipping the document and it is
not convenient to have to rename it before viewing it.

oowriter can open the file if the locale is fr_FR (with ISO 8859-1
encoding).

Regards
