2008-04-26 23:18:05 Youssef description Binary package hint: openoffice.org it seems that after an upgrade to hardy, the oopenoffice java configuration file becomes obsolete and doesn't get renewed ($HOME/.openoffice.org2/user/config/javasettings_Linux_x86.xml). That leaves java non-working by default in the openoffice shipped with hardy. A fix is certain to be deleting the file. But it would be great if you guys made an update to hardy and patched the file (acutally the problem seems that the file still refers to java jre 1.6.03). This is a 100% sure fix it has been tested and confirmed by almost all of the people who suffered from the error. I urge you canonical to take action by issuing the required update, especially seeing this is an enterprise release. I attached the re-created correct file on my for you to examine and compare with the old one.
