Steps to reproduce

1. Download OOO300_m4 from Maho or SUN

You resive a message 'You can't open the application "OpenOffice.org.app"

Comment 5 lohmaier 2008-08-31 15:08:03 UTC
problem: Symlink soffice → soffice.bin was removed, but Info.plist still refers
to soffice → Doesn't exist → OOo will not start.

Workarounds/Solutions: either create the symlink or change the entry in
Info.plist accordingly.

see also issue 92798

I wonder how the cws that removed the link made it through QA :-(
