Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1.1.2-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

When I try to execute oowriter I get the following output:
.................................................................
$ oowriter
OpenOffice.org for Debian - see
/usr/share/doc/openoffice.org/README.Debian.gz
running openoffice.org setup...

setup failed (code 0).. abort

This is a recent install.  I initially had a problem with openoffice.org
segfaulting on startup (see bug #268587).  It now appears that setup.bin is 
running at startup (? run by oooqs):
.................................................................

Here are the results of the troublshooting appraoches suggested in 
README.Debian.

1. Checking language settings:

I tried "LANG=<language> oowriter" where <language> =
"en|EN|en_EN|en_US|en_GB|en_GB.utf8|utf8|UTF8" all to no effect.

2. Checking for fonts.

The command cd "/usr/lib/openoffice/program; LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. strace 
./setup.bin 2>&1 |   grep -i "open(.*ttf" | tail" produced no output.  This is 
because the "libcomphelp3gcc3.so relocation error" occurs and aborts the 
program.  If it will help I can post the full output of "cd 
/usr/lib/openoffice/program; LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. strace ./setup.bin".

3. NFS mounted file systems.

N/A.

4. Produce a core dump.

The command "ulimit -c 10000; 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/openoffice/program/usr/lib/openoffice/program/setup.bin
 -R:/etc/openoffice/autoresponse.conf" does not produce a core dump.  Rather, 
the following console feedback appears:
.................................................................
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/setup.bin: relocation error:
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/libcomphelp3gcc3.so: undefined symbol: 
_ZN4_STL12__node_allocILb1ELi0EE11_M_allocateEj
.................................................................


Let me know if there is any further information I can supply to assist
troubleshooting.
