<http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=86389> still waits for a fix, rather urgently: On Linux, (at least Sun-built) OOo (and derivatives, like BrOffice) brings along a (rather old) libstdc++.so.6. It can happen that there is a later libstdc++.so.6 already installed on the system, and that certain system libraries that OOo (indirectly) loads depend on this later version, and thus fail to work in OOo. Functionality that is known to be affected is the KDE Look & Feel, the KDE configuration backend, and the KDE address book.

There appears to be no obvious, general fix for this problem. I would like to initiate a meeting where we can discuss how to proceed, sometime next week. I assume that at least obr and pl ("owners" of code that loads the problematic system libraries) and hr (for details of what exact version of libstdc++.so.6 we ship) are interested/willing to join the meeting. Depending on who else would want to join --- but be warned that this will become highly technical :) --- I will arrange the meeting as face to face or IRC, so please drop me a line until tomorrow in case you want to join.
