Description Caolan McNamara 2012-06-19 15:57:45 UTC
Description of problem:
Clicking gnome panel icons derived from OpenOffice.org .desktop files doesn't launch LibreOffice instead

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Starting with OpenOffice.org installed
2. Drag from applications->office->writer onto toolbar
3. Clicking the toolbar will launch OpenOffice.org
4. Upgrade to Libreoffice
5. Now click the toolbar icon
  
Actual results:
Failed to execute child process "openoffice.org-1.9"

Expected results:
LibreOffice launches instead

Additional info:
We dropped the compatibility 1-9.desktop files in F-10, but RHEL-6 precedes that release so we should restore them there.
