There is a reason: I was not aware that I don't need or even want it. My
hard disks are spacious, so I usually build all add-ons and options
unless I know I (or others who's boxes I install this on) don't ever
need it.

What console output? From compiling JDK or OOo, where the error
occurred? (Probably the latter.) I don't want to waste your time, but if
you're really interested, I could just compile it again with the
own-built JDK.

No sweat. I've uninstalled KDE-3.5.8 since then and am waiting for 4.0.
My half-hearted attempts to build that one got me nowhere so far ...
Thanks for all,
