OpenOffice. I'm about to drop all Oracle OOo packages from our repos.

I have a small concern. I regularly need to do a batch conversion of ODS files to CSV. For a long time I've been using JODConverter [1] to do so. However, with (Arch Linux's) LibreOffice it doesn't seem to work. I've found users claiming that JODConverter works with LibreOffice for them [2] (they don't mention their distribution though), I've also found an open bug report about connecting to LibreOffice [3] but I don't think it applies here.

Anyway this is the error I'm getting:
java.net.ConnectException: connection failed: 'socket,host=127.0.0.1,port=2002,tcpNoDelay=1'; java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused With openoffice-base everything works fine. I've tried to look at PKGBUILDs of both packages to see if there isn't a visible difference in configure options that might be a culprit but the PKGBUILDs are a bit too complicated for me to understand them well.

Is there anyone who would be able to help me make this work? I'd really appreciate it, this is the last reason that forces me to use Oracle's OpenOffice.
