OK, that does install cleanly.

One minor issue is that nothing seems to own /usr/share/writer2latex
({_datadir}/%{name}).  Probably the openoffice.org-writer2latex package should
own it.

However, the major issue is the debuginfo package, and this is where I'm really
not the best person to be reviewing this package.  The issue is that the
debuginfo doesn't include any of the source files due to what seems to me to be
some disconnect between the filenames appearing in the debugging symbols and the
actual location of the source files.  The result is that I get this:

extracting debug info from
/var/tmp/writer2latex-0.5-buildroot/usr/lib64/gcj/writer2latex/writer2latex-0.5.jar.so

cpio:
writer2latex05/aot-compile-rpm/usr/lib64/gcj/writer2latex/writer2latex-0.5.jar.1.jar:
Cannot stat: No such file or directory

cpio:
writer2latex05/aot-compile-rpm/usr/lib64/gcj/writer2latex/writer2latex/Application.java:
Cannot stat: No such file or directory

with the last line repeated for each source file in the tarball.

Now, in the past I've reviewed some java packages and this was easily solved by
making a symlink, but this method has actually stopped working.

So in the end I just don't know what to do.  If it's fixable in this package
then obviously that's what should be done, but otherwise the only options are to
disable the debuginfo package or leave things as they are.

So, who knows enough java to say whether this issue is fixable, or whether the
debuginfo package is useful as-is?
