Bryce,

the noxcb libx11 works fine but Compiz does not work anymore. Compiz depends on libx11-xcb1. The noxcb libx11-xcb1 package contains nothing (except the normal doc files). So compiz.real complains that it cannot find libX11-xcb.so.1. I have tried to recompile compiz. But it complains about the missing xcb lib. There is no option to disable xcb. I tried to remove xcb dependency in debian/control and configure.ac and Xlib-xcb.h in include/compiz-core.h. But then make crashes on src/display.c:2096 [d->connection = XGetXCBConnection (dpy);]. There is no (easy) way to remove the xcb dependency from compiz. So disabling xcb in libx11 is no solution.

So we should fix the bug in openoffice.org-gtk (providing libvclplug_gtk680lx.so) or openoffice.org-core (providing libsvx680lx.so and libvcl680lx.so). I have added a log from "strace -f oowriter".
