[LUG] Openoffice docx and ubuntu 9.10

 

recently upgraded her machine from 9.40 to 9.10 but I discovered last
night that her open office no longer opens docx files

She is running openoffice 3.1.1
000310m19 (Build:9420)
openoffice.org-core 1:3.1.1-5ubuntu1

I can't think of anything that would prevent her doing this, unless
there is an old package of something around the place.

Two immediate solutions present themselves:
- purge the existing openoffice and reinstall
- install a fresh installation of Debian ;) (This is on my list as I
  then maintaining her machine is easier)

However can anyone come up with an alternative?

Many thanks
