Bug Description

When trying to execute any openoffice.org2 program I receive errors about
loading shared libraries. Here is an example:

$ oowriter2
/usr/lib/openoffice2/program/javaldx: error while loading shared libraries:
libstlport_gcc.so.4.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib32/libpangohack.so.0.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be
preloaded: ignored.
/usr/lib/openoffice2/program/soffice.bin.real: error while loading shared
libraries: libstlport_gcc.so.4.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory

Tested version: 1.9.129-0.1ubuntu1-0ubuntu1

What does dpkg -S libstlport_gcc.so.4.6 say?
Does the file /usr/lib32/libstlport_gcc.so.4.6 exist?
What does dpkg -l ia32-libs-openoffice.org | cat say?
Does the problem go away if you reinstall ia32-libs-openoffice.org?

Fixed by purging and reinstalling openoffice.org2.

Exact same problem here. I did a

apt-get install --reinstall ia32-libs-openoffice.org

and now it works.

I was using a breezy for some times, and did an update recently. Maybe the
upgrade script failed between an older version.
