I have tried using both the package.use mechanism, and a straight USE="ooo-kde" emerge openoffice-ximian, and neither option produced the expected results. When you do a straight emerge of openoffice-ximian, you get the Ximian look and feel that that OpenOffice build. You also get a changed (more polished) icon set. And, the OO splash changes as well, to a splash with a Ximian logo. When I tried to implement the KDE integration, the icon set did not change, and the splash screen reverted to the original OO blue & white splash. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.USE="ooo-kde" emerge ximian-openoffice 2. 3. Actual Results: Ximian Openoffice look remains the same. Expected Results: the icon set should have changed, to look more like the icon set in KWord. (more KDE-like The bootsplash should have been the Ximian OO splash screen.

pardon me... under steps to reproduce, that should have been emerge openoffice-ximian, not emerge ximian-openoffice
I know, this is why I took it out again, made some stupid mistakes in the ebuild. Anyway, if you want to try out again, try oox-1.1.55-r1 (which is hard masked) as this should be fixed, but as I'm not finished compiling I cant't promise anything...
Just finished my build off oox-1.1.55-r1, which has everything working :) so closing this
