** Description changed: Binary package hint: openoffice.org2 - OO Applications do not start or crash when opening a file, if the - current gtk theme contains a bug. The following trace shows what happens - when the 'tactile' theme is used, which seems to be incomplete. With the - default theme and others, this error does not occur. + Certain Gtk themes trigger bugs in OOo applications, which causes them + to hang and/or crash. + + WORKAROUND: + a) Use another Gnome/Gtk theme, e.g. "Human". + (From the Gnome Panel (the bit with the clock and the Applications, Places, System drop down menus) click System then Preferences then Appearance and select Human - or start gnome-appearance-properties directly) + b) There are test packages for i386 [1] and amd64 [2] available, which you can use until the official update is available. + + [1] http://codeprobe.de/tmp/ooo/ + [2] https://edge.launchpad.net/~blueyed/+archive/+index?name_filter=openoffice + + + Original description: + OO Applications do not start or crash when opening a file, if the current gtk theme contains a bug. The following trace shows what happens when the 'tactile' theme is used, which seems to be incomplete. With the default theme and others, this error does not occur. While the problem is related to the theme as well, OO certainly should not crash here. Used version: gutsy as of 2007-08-10; OO 2.3.0~src680m224-1ubuntu2 I first noticed the problem after the automatic update to 2.3.0 yesterday.
