Details

/opt/kde/lib/3.5/libmswordimport, a part of the koffice package, links against /both/, libgsf 1.13 and libgsf 1.14:
$ ldd libmswordimport.so | grep gsf
libgsf-1.so.113 => not found
libgsf-1.so.114 => /usr/lib/libgsf-1.so.114 (0x41b2f000)

However, as you can see, only libgsf-1.14 is present in the current repository. As a result, the user gets a "Creation Error" message, everytime he/she tries to open an MS Word Document, and the operation fails. This would probably be resolved by recompiling koffice against libgsf-1.14 only.

As expected, recompiling koffice from ABS resolved the issue. I just want to point out, that there is a conflict between ruby and glibc-2.4, where ruby redefines glibc's internal eaccess() and leads to a compiler error while compiling koffice. More information on the issue can be found here: http://www.savarese.com/software/SavaSpread/api/build.html , at the bottom of the page.

-4 is coming, a few stripped runtime dependencies have to be tested. probably won't take that long... thanks for the hint with ruby and gsf.

ruby is not yet a dep for koffice, even then i would like to include it. did you file a bug regarding ruby yet?
