ping?
I don't know how to reproduce this bug from trunk.
Anything I can provide you with? or things I could try? It is strange as the other koffice apps seem to work fine...
Can you try and build from svn? Can you verify that something is wrong with trunk? Because I can start the designer and others can too...
Same here for 1.5 beta 1

Confirmed, koffice-1.4.2 build on rhel4/x86_64 with kde-3.5.1.
Still the same with 1.4.95 :/
Same with 1.5.0-rc1

This fixed it for me: rename /usr/share/applications/fedora-kudesigner.desktop to /usr/share/applications/kudesigner.desktop Not sure how/why the app's function depends on the name of its .desktop file. Either way, looks like it's a packaging issue. I'll wait set this RESOLVED->INVALID pending clarification on the significance of the name of kudesigner's .desktop file.
Confirmed packaging issue.
