Comment 53 for bug 236676

Howdy. I am experiencing the same problem under Kubuntu / Hardy AMD64 and do not have openoffice.org-gtk or openoffice.org-gnome installed. I do however have openoffice.org-kde installed and removing that allows me to start soffice (without the preferred interface of course).

Deleting ".openoffice.org2" has no effect on whether the app will start or not. Using "sudo soffice" does not let me launch either and so far this bug seems to affect all methods I have tried for launching (command line, menu, "open with", etc.).

Cheers
