Openoffice 2.0 on Ubuntu 6.06?

[ruscook]

Hi
I had this on edgy as well. Try and remove the existign open office then
reinstall. It might need a couple of reinstalls and an apt-get install
-f ....  to get it working. Also preserve the /etc/openoffice directory
as the "remove" took a couple of files from this directory that the new
install didn't reinstall and caused segfaults on loading openoffice.
