.doc cannot be read after being saved as .odt

I will attach a file (sorry, it's a rather huge one), which can be opened in OO.o 2.2, but, once saved as .odt, cannot be re-opened, giving an XML format error.
Created attachment 45812 [details] Large .doc that cannot be re-opened after saving as .odt
not reproducible on 2.2.1rc3 on linux. Please give more details about your system/try again with 2.2.1rc3 yourself/attach the generated odt.
Created attachment 45815 [details] unreadable file created from original document
My attempt to install from the RPMS on Ubuntu gives this: error: Failed dependencies: /bin/sh is needed by openoffice.org-core10-2.2.1-9161.i586 libgnomevfs-2.so.0 is needed by openoffice.org-gnome-integration-2.2.1-9161.i586 libgconf-2.so.4 is needed by openoffice.org-gnome-integration-2.2.1-9161.i586 I have /bin/sh, and libgconf-2.so.4 is in /usr/lib, as is libgnomevfs-2.so.0 (though they are all symbolic links).
Converted the .rpm files to .deb, and was able to install; it now can read the document properly. (I lost all the gnome icons, but that's a minor problem.)
I also cannot reproduce the problem with native OOo Linux builds. Seems to be a problem of the ubuntu-own build.
Closed, not reproducible on native builds.
