The filename is written differently to the disk, when ooffice is started with 
LC_MESSAGES defined like that. With other programs like vim, I have no problems 
reading and writing files like "testäöü.txt". What is the connection between 
LC_MESSAGES and the encoding of the filenames?

Worse, if LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8, I'm not able to open a file with characters 
like ä, ö or ü in its name.

I played a little bit with the environment settings:

If no LC_* is set, ls displays files with äöü in their names with ??? replaced. 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] fixes this. For ooffice this seems to make no difference.

The file open box of ooffice behaves also different depending on the setting of 
LC_MESSAGES. I created a file testlcäöü.sxw with ooffice started with 
LC_MESSAGES set and a file testnolcäöü with ooffice started with LC_MESSAGES 
undefined. Here is how the open file dialog of ooffice displays the files when 
started with or without LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8 defined:

LC_MESSAGES undefined:
testnolcäöü.sxw: displayed correctly
testlcäöü: displayed with cryptic characters in its name, but can be opened

LC_MESSAGES defined:
testnolcäöü.sxw: The filename is not displayed (empty), the stats are. Cannot 
be opened.
testlcäöü.sxw: displayed correctly, can be opened.
