It gives that same type of 'error' message with any file you try to open with it that it does not recognize. The only reason it tries to open the file at all is due to the mime-type association in the .desktop file.
For example create a 0 byte file named something completely random, say foo.bar. Then run 'soffice foo.bar' at the command line, you will get the exact same error message as you get trying to open a file that needs openoffice.org-filter-binfilter. -- ooo-filter-binfilter not installed by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/248851 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
