Openoffice 3 Will Not Start libuno_sal.so.3 UDK

[tomdean]

Openoffice 3 immediately exits

# openoffice
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice.bin: /usr/lib/openoffice/program/libuno_sal.so.3: version `UDK_3.8' not found (required by /usr/lib/openoffice/program/../basis-link/program/libsofficeapp.so)

Openoffice 3.0 was working. I think upgrading some packages may have caused this failure. I have upgraded several times since I last used openoffice. I reinstalled openoffice, and uno-libs3 but did not fix the problem.

What additional information may I supply?

This is the same as gentoo Bug 244510.

I resolved this by removing openoffice.org and libuno

apt-get remove openoffice*
locate libuno
# then remove all libuno_sal.so.3
apt-get install openoffice.org

Some other installation/removal left a stray link or file that conflicted with libuno_sal.so.3

Sorry, I screwed the URL

is the same as this report and, is resolved.
