[SOLVED] Error occuring while enabling extension

Question

Hey all,
I've been using OpenOffice 3  (openoffice-base beta and devel and stable now) and have tried to install the Sun Presenter Console, but I get the following error:
% /opt/openoffice/program/unopkg add -v sun-presenter-screen-linuxintel.oxt
ERROR: (com.sun.star.deployment.DeploymentException) { { Message = "An error occurred while enabling: PresenterScreen.uno.so", Context = (com.sun.star.uno.XInterface)@-4c944490 }, Cause = (any) { (com.sun.star.registry.CannotRegisterImplementationException) { { Message = "loading component library failed: file:///home/shshe/.openoffice.org/3/user/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/tHnwYZ_/sun-presenter-screen-linuxintel.oxt/PresenterScreen.uno.so", Context = (com.sun.star.uno.XInterface) @0 } } } }
rollback...
Disabling: PresenterScreen.xcs
rollback finished.
An error occurred while enabling: PresenterScreen.uno.so
Using the GUI extension manager installer also brings up the same error.
Anyone else encountering this problem, or know of a solution? A google search doesn't bring up many hits, which leads me to believe it might be an Arch Linux specific problem...
Edit: Added verbose output thanks to aksdb
Edit: openoffice-base 3.0.0-2 fixes this problem! Thanks AndyRTR

I encounter the same problem. To be more precise, -v (verbose) gives the following details:
ERROR: (com.sun.star.deployment.DeploymentException) { { Message = "Fehler beim Aktivieren von: PresenterScreen.uno.so", Context = (com.sun.star.uno.XInterface) @-4ca9fc98 }, Cause = (any) { (com.sun.star.registry.CannotRegisterImplementationException) { { Message = "loading component library failed: file:///opt/openoffice/program/../share/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/9c5ZOV_/sun-presenter-screen-linuxintel.oxt/PresenterScreen.uno.so", Context = (com.sun.star.uno.XInterface) @0 } } } }
The same happens with other Sun extensions (like pdfimport). It works fine however with the Sun OOo versions (the binary ones from the website).
I guess it's a packaging problem, because the vanila OOo has a different directory layout: /opt/openoffice.org and /opt/openoffice.org3 (both with a large sub directory tree consisting of libraries, programs and other shared files), where Arch Linux only has /opt/openoffice.
