Koffice 2.1 rc1 for Karmic in the backports beta ppa

Koffice 2.0.91 was released some time ago. Kubuntu packages were not ready in time, because, as I always, I was to slow ;) . However now packages are in Kubuntu’s backports beta ppa. We also backported a newer wv2 library, so that hopefully support for MS documents should work better than with the last beta packages. You can activate the backports beta repo by adding

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/beta/ubuntu karmic main.

to your /etc/apt/sources.list.

Also it is good security practice to add the key for this archive, type:

sudo apt-key adv –recv-keys –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 8AC93F7A

Install Koffice with

sudo apt-get install koffice-kde4

Note: Koffice 1.6 will be removed. Enjoy and report bugs.

      Which version of Koffice is installed?

      apt-cache policy koffice-kde4

      Did you install something from the experimental ppa?

    I fixed it. I have tried everything I have found on Google, but the thing that fixed it was removing old menu items. Before that I have removed and installed kde-office again. Sorry.

    I even compiled KOffice myself before this…

    Thanks anyway…
