Default Openoffice

'All of a sudden' OOo won't start. It just exits without an error message.
I tried reinstalling it with ./setup -net but it just prints 'glibc
version: 2.3.2' and draws the little progress bar, and quits.

I haven't done anything major other than keep up to date with -current. Is
anyone else getting this with -current?

You might've broken a dependency when upgrading to -current, like the recent
QT update (or was it gtk?)

Running -current here on three machines. I have not had OOo quit working on
me, but on *one* of the three machines I have the same problem
running ./setup (for an upgrade to 1.1.2). Haven't solved it yet, but it
doesn't appear to be related to -current.
