This was just posted by mbjsscn2 on the Kubuntu forum:

"I had same issue with tribe 3 and found that by installing the following, Openoffice works again: mozilla-openoffice.org openoffice.org-gnome openoffice.org-gtk openoffice.org-kde

I suspect that its the 'openoffice.org-gtk' that makes the difference but I haven't had time to experiment further.

I had everything except OO.org-gnome installed (would never have thought of that). Installing OO.org.-gnome on Kubuntu actually does work. I am a bit at a loss why. I mean what is OO.org-gnome doing on KDE?? Maybe the gods that are can explain this.
