Bug Description

Binary package hint: abiword

On Ubuntu 10.04.1 using Abiword 2.8.2-2ubuntu1.1, I am unable to switch to to presentation view.

When selecting "Ansicht / Presentation" (probably "View / Presentation" in English), nothing happens.

When started from a terminal window, the following error message is displayed in that case:

kramski@gondl:~$ abiword&
[1] 4192
kramski@gondl:~$
** (abiword:4192): WARNING **: Got plain filename /usr/share/abiword-2.8/Presentation.xml in UT_go_file_open.
[LoadBindings] Error: XML file failed to load

Also occurs on a different machine running Xubuntu 10.04.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,
   Heinz
