Bug Description

OpenOffice.org 2.0 needs libFLAC.so.7, but this is not available for 64-bit on openoffice.org, ia32-libs-.* packages do not provide this.

When starting, openoffice.org2 gives the vague error "No suitable windowing system found, exiting". The library /usr/lib/openoffice.org2/program/libvlcplug_gen680li.so is the library that depends on libFLAC.so.7.

I fixed it by copying libFLAC.so.7 from a chrooted debootstrap installation.

You might want to consider putting the file in ia32-libs-openoffice.org.
