New version?

KCrash: Application 'kword' crashing... Expected Results: Opened the file, or declined to be able to open it Maybe this is a KDE project bug and not gentoo? I've rebuilt Koffice several times with different Make options. As far as i can see my CFlags dont do it, can anyone confirm this? or give settings with which it worked? root@SuperLaptop steve # emerge info Portage 2.0.50-r6 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3_pre20040207-r0, 2.6.5-gentoo-r1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.5-gentoo-r1 i686 Celeron (Coppermine) Gentoo Base System version 1.4.9 distcc 2.13 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r3 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium3 -fomit-frame-pointer -fmove-all-movables -fforce-mem -fforce-addr -mmmx -msse -mfpmath=sse" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium3 -fomit-frame-pointer -fmove-all-movables -fforce-mem -fforce-addr -mmmx -msse -mfpmath=sse" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache distcc fixpackages regenworld sandbox strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.datapipe.net/gentoo ftp://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo/ http://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/ http://128.213.5.34/gentoo/ http://gentoo.netnitco.net" MAKEOPTS="-j1" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl acpi alsa apm audiofile avi berkdb crypt cups dga dvd encode esd foomaticdb gdbm gif gpm gtk imap imlib java jpeg kde libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx motif mozilla mpeg msn ncurses offensive oggvorbis opengl pam pcmcia pdflib perl png pnp python qt quicktime readline sdl slang spell sse ssl svga tcpd tiff truetype wlan wmf x86 xml2 xmms xv zlib"
Additional Wonkey Behavior, when opening a OpenOffice file format, KWord appears to get stuck in a loop, the following message ASSERT: "frm" in kwframe.cc (632) over and over agian in console. And KWord itself is locked.
try the koffice mailing list, I bet they can help you out with it.
Caleb marked KOffice 1.3.2 stable today. Emerging a recent wv2 version (before upgrading koffice) is helpful, too. This is nothing we can do about. If you still have problems, try either the koffice mailinglist or bugs.kde.org.
