The workaround mentioned above results in a lot of dependencies errors. The funny thing is I just installed the tribe3 version of ubuntu did an upgrade and did not get any issues with OO 2.2.1-5u3. So I am not sure if this is not a kubuntu only thing or maybe just an upgrade from tribe 2 to tribe 3. I updated / -graded my tribe 2 in kubuntu today and was confronted with this issue.
I tend to agree with Gabriel: "I believe this bug is kde related somehow...havent seen it reported by gnome users." -- [gutsy]Open Office applications don't start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127944 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for glib2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
