With a simple apt update && apt upgrade && apt install abiword installation, without the XDG environment variable, I got a working abiword import/export feature for HTML, PDF and Microsoft Word (ie, all formats excepted LibreOffice).
Did you get another issue at commit 5b6d8a6e21f7 "Remove abiword and base on debian jessie image" or was it only for OpenOffice?
If so, perhaps a good idea could be to offer all the others conversions but disable the OpenOffice one from the UI:
