Though some people said OpenOffice was dead, but honestly I'm comfortable with OpenOffice than other document editor.
Anyway I think I get a trouble with OpenOffice on arch Linux (I have two machine and installed arch Linux there). OpenOffice can't follow my gtk theme (breeze, adwaita, etc).
_
I suspect it because gtk stuff or maybe python stuff (since I know OpenOffice needs python, right).
And strangely it happens just on arch Linux 64 bit but not on my arch Linux 32 bit (archlinux32). Any ideas?
_
Things I've done:
Set OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome (not work).
Load gtk-2.0 configuration manually (not work).
Installing some package which relate to gtk and python (pygtk, python-xlib, gtkmm) etc. (Not work).

Have you built both versions of openoffice from the same source? Nothing they depend on has been updated in the mean time?
As far as I can tell, there's no prebuild instances of Apache openoffice in the repos, but there is an AUR project for it.
If you launch it from a terminal, does it spit out any logging that might be useful? If not, and it's a purely visual difference, could you attach screenshots so that we've more of an idea what problem you're having.

For both of them, I don't build it, I just grab the archive from official site then extract it to a folder and set path for it. No special output after launch it from terminal except for kind of segmentation fault (I can't remember it completely, I am not having access to my machines right now ) I'll back with screenshot.

Do both insances segfault? As far as I'm aware after a segfault whatever process was running will no longer be running, so something is dying. It may not be important if both segfault at about the same time, but if one segfaults and the other does not, something's going wrong.

For the segfault, it happen to my Archlinux 64 bit and Archlinux32 but the application works fine, I just want the OpenOffice follow my gtk theme.

You can run coredumpctl -1 to see if it left a coredump for you to inspect. Dumping that with something like coredumpctl -o ~/core.dump dump (be aware this might take a while to complete) then you can debug it in gdb (gdb -c ~/core.dump) and the first thing it'll tell you is what executable exited. You can then exit this gdb instance by entering the q command.
Coredumpctl is part of the systemd package, so I'd expect you to have that installed already. Gdb needs separate installation if you don't have it already I recall.

Woa worth a shot... Thanks. I'll try it.

I have done. Good work in sussing that out.
FWIW You should be able to edit the first post yourself, and there you can change the title to mark it as read. The only complication here was that the title was already overlong, so I needed to abbreviate it to be able to add the solved mark.
