Running karmic here on a 64bit intel machine. Can confirm the same bug.
Trying to read or write a fodt file gives a "generic" read error.
Installing openoffice.org-dev solved this problem!
This warning message given by openoffice (after installing openoffice
.org-dev) might be relevant
" Warning: at xsl:stylesheet on line 2 of
file:///usr/lib/openoffice/basis3.1/share/xslt/odfflatxml/odfflatxmlimport.xsl:
Running an XSLT 1.0 stylesheet with an XSLT 2.0 processor"
I suspect that openoffice.org-dev pulls in some external software tools
(eg. for XML stylesheets) that are required for the flat XML based
documents.
Scrolling back in my history, these are the packages that where pulled
in when i installed openoffice.org-dev
$ sudo aptitude install openoffice.org-dev
The following NEW packages will be installed:
dmake{a} ecj{a} ecj-gcj{a} fastjar{a} gcj-4.4-base{a} gcj-4.4-jdk{a}
