Well the use flags just add the ability to support (and add dependancies on) the given environment by building the plugin. If you check the output of "ldd /usr/lib/openoffice/program/*", you will see several libraries that depend upon KDE components. Removing the kde use flag would prevent those libraries from being built with openoffice.
Yes, I've spotted at least a couple of dozens of kde libs scrolling by.
The choice is made at runtime whether to *use* those libraries. As far as I can tell (I have not checked the OOo sources), OOo decides to use KDE based on the KDE_FULL_SESSION environment variable. Mine is set to 'true'. Do you have something else? Maybe you are not running a the full KDE environment somehow?
Where/how do you check that? I am running fluxbox and a number of KDE apps which I launch as and when needed. More rarely I launch the full KDE as a DE (BTW, are you running KDE as a DE?). It is worth mentioning that when I launch OOo after KDE has started it readilly assumes the KDE icons. However, launching it from within fluxbox with no KDE running it assumes the none env. This was not the case in the past when the ooo-kde flag worked beautifully. Now it is of course ignored. :-(

Thanks I'll check that. -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
