i have the same problem with all of my koffice2 apps.  i don't understand why 
this was marked invalid either.
i suppose that koffice2 is looking for the *.desktop files in a certain place 
and they aren't there.  however, for me with kword for instance:
kword-kde4
bash: kword-kde4: command not found
(^ don't know if this matters, but included it any way)

i know the "real" path to the binary, which is /usr/lib/kde4/bin/, so:
/usr/lib/kde4/bin/kword
findServiceByDesktopPath: kwordpart.desktop not found
findServiceByDesktopPath: Office/kword.desktop not foun

so:
mlocate kword.desktop && mlocate kwordpart.desktop
/home/echoes/.local/share/applications/kde4-kword.desktop
/usr/lib/kde4/share/kde4/services/krossmodulekword.desktop
/usr/share/app-install/desktop/kde4-kword.desktop
/usr/share/app-install/desktop/kword.desktop
/usr/share/applications/kde4/kword.desktop
/usr/share/mimelnk/application/x-kword.desktop
/usr/lib/kde4/share/kde4/services/kwordpart.desktop

so the files are there, but koffice2 can't find them.  i don't know
where specifically it is looking for those desktop files, but i assume a
symlink would suffice, if someone could tell me where it is looking for
those desktop files i could possibly solve this.
