Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I recently updated to ubuntu hardy beta, from gutsy.

I had previously developed a database which I use very frequently. I had
previously posted this bug: #154491, which describes that I had to
change the JRE environment openoffice comes as default with, to be able
to properly run a robust form in my database.

The problem is that after upgrading, openoffice.org 2.4rc2, as it stands
in this beta version, says that: "Openoffice.org requires a Java Runtime
Environment (JRE)" to perform this operation. The selected JRE is
defective. Please select another version or install a new JRE and select
it under Tools - Options - Openoffice.org - Java"

The thing is that I when I go to that menu, I initially notice
openoffice hasn't loaded the JRE that I had installed previously in
Gustsy. It takes some seconds to "think" and there are the two packages:
1.6.0_05 and 1.5.0_15

But when choosing either of them, it simply keeps showing the same
message. When I restart openoffice.org, and go to the menu again, I
notice again that none of the selected packages is chosen as default.
But regardless of the fact that I chose them again, a different one
every time, I get the same annoying error.

I can then assume that openoffice.org 2.4rc2 is not properly coexisting
with the previous JRE I had been using from Gutsy, and I think this can
be very critical.

Thank you.
