Description Aaron Williams 2004-02-06 21:56:33 UTC
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.2.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2
OS:          SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

If I attempt to start any koffice applications, nothing happens.  If I try and start them from the command prompt, I see:

kio (KSycoca): Trying to open ksycoca from /var/tmp/kdecache-aaronw/ksycoca
kio (KTrader): KServiceTypeProfile::offers( KOfficePart, )
kio (KTrader): Returning 10 offers

and then it just returns.  I get the same thing for both kword and kspread.

Where did you install koffice, and where is KDE installed?
See the bottom of http://www.koffice.org/download/source.php in case you
used different prefixes.

Or run koffice/tools/scripts/check_koffice_install.sh to debug the problem.

Comment 2 Aaron Williams 2004-02-06 23:34:03 UTC
I used /opt/kde3/3.2 as my prefix, the same as everything else.  I verified that kword is installed in /opt/kde3/3.2/bin

My fault for using a non-portable option for grep.
Fixed, please try again with the attached script.
