Just wondering ... does this issue continue to exist after a reboot?
Also, did you upgrade from some pre-release (alpha, beta...) or was it a new
install of koffice2?
The thing is that kbuildsycoca4 (which would basically do what removing
ksycoca4 causes) is run everytime a file changes as well as every couple
of minutes to catch new files. Taking this into account the issue should
be resolved in a matter of seconds after an upgrade and in a matter of
minutes after a new install. In any case it should resolve after a
reboot or login because kbuildsycoca4 is always executed by the script
responsible for KDE's startup.
I can really only think of 2 reasons why this would fail:
1. kbuildsycoca4 fails to parse the desktop files (i.e. there is some wrong
format present)
2. ksycoca4 is broken due to previous parsing problems (in earlier version of
koffice[2]) or due to some other screwup
** Changed in: koffice2 (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
