openoffice splash screen displayed but nothing else

[david.barbion]

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

When starting open office writer / spreadsheet / drawing / impress, the splash screen is displayed, but the process soffice.bin freezes on it, eating 100% of CPU.

Those messages are displayed on the console too:

(process:32321): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.13.7/gobject/gtype.c:2242: initialization assertion failed, use IA__g_type_init() prior to this function

(process:32321): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failed

(process:32321): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_screen_get_font_options: assertion `GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed
