Running the same Ubuntu/Unity on a 64-bit ThinkPad I just tried

$ sudo apt-get remove abiword

which did not affect any of my other office suites (currently AOO and
LibO from ppa).

$ sudo apt-get remove abiword

reinstalls the same abiword as before without affecting anything. I can
double-click text documents, I can choose any application from the
context menu of an .odt file.

The only thing that drives me nuts is that Ubuntu refuses to open any
ODF document with the graphical zip tool ("unsupported archive") unless
I change the file name suffix to .zip. This is most idiotic Windows style.
