Make sure soffice exist and is not a broken link in /usr/bin/soffice If you install OpenOffice from our website, it will reside on /opt/OpenOffice/program/soffice
Otherwise, please check the pacakge information, googling here is the openoffice package for Kubuntu: https://launchpad.net/~apacheopenoffice However is terribly outdate (3.4) currently we are on 4.1.1 My best recomendation is to download from our website.
