please try some tests:
(1) remove prelink package and/or terminate any prelinking then rerun or
re-install without prelink.
i dont have that package here but the command is something like prelink -n
from memory.

(2) please report the output from uname -m

(3) report running file on libsal:
cd /usr/lib/openoffice/program (or where it lives)
file libsal.so.3

thanks
jim
