Same problem apparently. Manual fix is:
- stop any running openoffice
- run the following commands
$ sudo /usr/lib/openoffice/program/unopkg remove --shared
org.openoffice.legacy.writer2latex.uno.pkg
$ sudo dpkg --configure openoffice.org-writer2latex
Alternatively, the extension registration can be done with "--force" so
that it will happily overwrite any already installed extension.
See "/usr/lib/openoffice/program/unopkg --help". Another alternative is to
use the --list option and check if the extension is registered before
trying to register it.
Right now, any upgrade will fail as it will try to re-register the
extension which is already registered. Given that postinst ought to be
idempotent, this is a serious problem.
