I believe I have all dependencies met. I have libgtk-2 installed, I checked. I checked also what packages kubuntu installs with their version of the OO, and there is nothing like gtk.
But I think you might be right actually and something else gnome-related that I don't have is causing problem. A pal here http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3084090.0 Still cannot find solution it seems. I did google around for 3 days straight, but none of the advices I saw worked for me... I think I see the problem: http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/source/sys_reqs_20.html > Linux: > > * Installation of GNOME 2.2 > You are using KDE, so I suspect that not having gnome/gtk installed is causing the issue. Unfortunately I do not have a current kubuntu/kde installed, so perhaps it might be better to ask in one of these forums: http://www.kubuntu.org/support.php http://kubuntuforums.net/ https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users If you do find the answer there, please do post back so that others will know what you found out, and so that Hagar and update his instructions to include kubutun/kde as well.
