Anyone with the famous koffice startup problem, where it would say "can't find native mimetype, check your installation" - (especially if it says that for some of the koffice apps but not all) : Check that your ~/.local/share/applications directory doesn't contain a .desktop file with the name of the application that won't start. If so, remove it. This probably only affects users of kdelibs-CVS (or 3.2-alpha), not users of kdelibs-3.1.x. I have discussed this with Waldo and he hopes to fix kdelibs for this (the bug is that the local file doesn't get merged with the global $prefix/share/applnk/Office/app.desktop). -- David FAURE, faure@kde.org, sponsored by Trolltech to work on KDE, Konqueror (http://www.konqueror.org), and KOffice (http://www.koffice.org). ____________________________________ koffice mailing list koffice@mail.kde.org To unsubscribe please visit: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/koffice
