Found the cause of bug #161970 - When operating openoffice configured for more than one locale,
~/.openoffice/1.0.1/user/config/registry/instance/org/openoffice/Linguistic.xml will not store the
default locale used as looked for by the /usr/bin/openoffice script. This results in the OLDLOCALE variable in the /usr/bin/openoffice script always being set to en-US, and the previous sessions language locale settings being overwritten.
Say you live in New Zealand, people send you documents with en-NZ in parargraphs, you work in en-GB, and also have to cope with en-US... New Zealand uses UK spellings, and so I installed en_GB.zip UK dictionary to cope.
I have inserted my Linguistics.xml
PS - as a work around I commented out the locale changing stuff in the /usr/bin/openoffice shell script.
Hope that this helps.
Best Regards,
Matthew Grant
