The connector tool was broken in one of the KOffice beta releases and fixed in the next. KOffice was always going to be difficult to backport to potato, but the KOffice 1.1-final release depends on KDE 2.2 so this makes it even less likely that it will be backported for potato users. The good news is that the woody release isn't (in theory) too far away. :) At the moment all my debian time is going into getting stuff ready for woody, but if someone else wants to take the koffice 1.1-final sources and try a backport then they're more than welcome. :) Ben.
