Hi.

Thanks for your response.  I should clarify -- I don't have
two versions of Qt, and I'm not missing kdelibs: I have
kdelibs 2.2.2-2 and Qt 2.3.1-5.

KOffice did compile with no errors.  So I don't think I'm
missing any major library packages.

Do you have any other thoughts as to what might be 
happening?

Thanks,
Kris
