Mostly, the KDE specific build option is no longer needed. Both KDE and Gnome use 
Freedesktop interfaces now. That interface via VCL may need some tweaking, I don't know. 
When I tried to build with "--enable-KDE" at least 2 years ago, it was a bit of 
a chore due to the overhead of installing the needed KDE development stuff. Better to 
just concentrate on Freedesktop and ditch the KDE specific code altogether I think.


Checking for usage of ENABLE_KDE and ENABLE_KDE4 on OpenGrok:
* main/cui/source/options/optgdlg.cxx and
main/filepickers/source/unx/kde4 deal with file pickers.
* main/shell/source/backends/kdebe reads KDE's network proxy settings,
the external mailer, source view font properties, etc.
* main/vcl/unx/kde4 deals with libQt's main loop integration, event
filtering, decides which controls to draw natively, matches fonts with
system fonts, input methods, etc.
* main/toolkit/source/layout/core/dialogbuttonhbox.cxx selects
ordering for dialog buttons

These are generally tasks that go beyond what Freedesktop provides.
Thanks for the good analystic work. Maybe this is exactly a problem for 
the dublicate menus. Maybe OpenOffice renders the manu twice. first with 
normal Linux and seccond with kde4. And finaly you have the text twice. 
I have to say, I'm not familiar with this source. It's just a srange 
idea from an "outside view."


Regards, Raphael

You can try it with --enable-kde4

Is that CWS under the ASLv2?

Hello;

Interesting (I use KDE but have never enabled the KDE option).

FWIW, there is/was a KDE4 CWS in the archive:

https://bitbucket.org/mst/ooo340/branch/default?head=4cb6c97c0ec77613a9501fca04793f23a982adbb

OpenOffice on KDE 4 issues

Hi

I am busy porting fpicker to gbuild, and needed to test its KDE 4 version,
and ended up fixing a bug there, and a VCL bug on KDE that stopped AOO from
starting.

However we still have this duplicate text issue in the menu, and dialog
corruption:


​

Any KDE users? Any thoughts?

Thank you
