Openoffice-bin-2.0.2 have been working flawless under KDE-3.5.2. However, after upgrading to KDE-3.5.3, openoffice applications seq. fault when starting from KDE. Switch to ICEWM and openoffice2 applications work flawlessly again. This is the output I get when I start Openoffice from konsole. $ ooffice2 /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice: line 233: 5913 Segmentation fault "$sd_prog/$sd_binary" "$@"

This definately would need some input from the KDE-herd, as this seems to be triggered by the kdelibs-3.5.3-upgrade and really is a killer for lots of OpenOffice.org / Gentoo users.
I would like to help but I can't (I'm on amd64 or on FreeBSD, both of which don't build openoffice right now). And the backtraces posted are all useless because openoffice-bin is stripped :/

I can't reproduce this, no matter what menu shadowing/blending options I choose.
I meant upstream already :)
I can't reproduce this bug, the only thing that I can suggest is to try to change your style/window decoration if it's not default, as previously I had some issues (not segfault) using openoffice-bin-2.0.2 with "polymer" (unsupported, I know....), and changing to crystal+plastic solved....
I have tried it under a blank new account and the problem is still there. Is there a way to disable KDE integration for openoffice-bin? There should be a way to temporarily work around it as openoffice-bin still works under other desktop environments.
Are you running an entire KDE(or at least with all the kdebase-meta packages)? Here is still impossible to reproduce the segfault, I tried for every Ooo component.... Are you using composite? (with xcomposite flag on kwin?)
I am using kde-meta. I have the full kdebase-meta plus selected package in other kdexxx-metas. Yes, the xcomposite use flag is turn on in make.conf. I did not change my use flags for quite a while. The use flags should be the same as the previous versions of KDE. I have neither COMPOSITE nor RENDER turned on in my xorg.conf.
(In reply to comment #13) > Are you running an entire KDE(or at least with all the kdebase-meta packages)? > Here is still impossible to reproduce the segfault, I tried for every Ooo > component.... Are you using composite? (with xcomposite flag on kwin?) I have neither xcomposite flag, COMPOSITE nor RENDER turned on. I have three kde 3.5.3-boxes (yeah, all kde-meta stuff installed) not working - one has X.org 6.9 & mga-driver (no fancy extensions nor effects), second has X.org 7.0 & nvidia-driver and the third has X.org 7.1 & radeon-driver. The openoffice (2.0.2 & 2.0.3-rc5) worked just fine after emerging kde 3.5.3, but broke down after restarting X. It works when started in another desktop environment. For some reason gdb doesn't recognize the object file format of the 2.0.3-rc5 binaries so I can't backtrace this.
I don't have either COMPOSITE extension or RENDER extension. I don't know whether what I say shall confuse further, but I found that this problem started after I moved to gcc-4.1.1. I had kde-3.5.3 with gcc-3.4.6 and this was working fine. After I emerged gcc-4.1.1 and rebuilt my entire toolchain, then this problem started. But in the comments, I observe that this problem is also with someone who has gcc-3.4.5.

Setting export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome did not appear to fix it for me, although I got some different output: $ oowriter2 Append arg: -writer $
> export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome > after that OO should run with gtk integration After setting this, I can see the splash screen and the progress bar running to about 50% and then the splash screen disappeared and nothing further happened. No seg. fault message, as if the program has terminated normally. $ OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome oowriter2 $
I can confirm this problem. I do not know if gcc 4.1 or KDE3.5.3 precipitated the problem since I upgraded both before using ooffice2. This problems happens on an AMD/Nvidia box and an Intel/ATI laptop. I don't use any I18N features on one, and on the ohter all I ever use it the KDE keyboard mapping selector tool. Here is a backtrace of soffice.bin on the AMD box: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I managed to emerge openoffice-2.0.2, from source with gcc-4.1.1 and sun-java-1.5.0.6, which runs flawlessly from KDE. Maybe the stock openoffice-bin-2.0.x is compiled with older tool chains which have compatibility issues with the latest ~86 gentoo portage. Perhaps Gentoo should provide a gentoo-compiled version of openoffice-bin rather than taking the stock version from openoffice.org.
A guy here: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-467213-highlight-openoffice+segmentation+fault.html suggested that this may be due to the use of the -ffast-math gcc flag when compiling kdelibs. The OP in that thread reported that the problem was solved after a ricompilation of kdelibs without that flag.
i can confirm, that removing -ffast-math from C*FLAGS and reemerging kdelibs fixes the issue. i'm closing this bug as WONTFIX, couse this flag isn't supported by gentoo-team (more info: http://dev.gentoo.org/~plasmaroo/devmanual/ebuild-writing/functions/src_compile/buildenv/) if you think i'm wrong, feel free to reopen
I just want to add (in case it is useful to anyone) that I am use the baghira KDE theme, and in my case I also had to recompile baghira before ooffice stopped crashing. (Although, once kdelibs was recompiled, the segfault moved to a baghira library, and was no longer in libkdefx.so.4)
For me, after trying many of the other fixes others proposed, the solution turned out to be to re-emerge the nvidia kernel and X drivers, then `eselect opengl set nvidia`, and then restart X. I don't know if that alone fixed it, or if it was a combination of that and other stuff, so ymmv.
