Some time ago, I have installed openoffice 1.1.4
from package. After installation, I discovered:

$ ldd /usr/local/[...]/soffice.bin | grep "not found"
        libvcl645fi.so => not found (0x0)
        libsvl645fi.so => not found (0x0)
        libsvt645fi.so => not found (0x0)
        libutl645fi.so => not found (0x0)
        libtl645fi.so => not found (0x0)
        libcomphelp3gcc3.so => not found (0x0)
        libucbhelper2gcc3.so => not found (0x0)
        libvos3gcc3.so => not found (0x0)
        libcppuhelpergcc3.so.3 => not found (0x0)
        libcppu.so.3 => not found (0x0)
        libsal.so.3 => not found (0x0)
        libtk645fi.so => not found (0x0)
        libstlport_gcc.so => not found (0x0)

All these libraries are in
/usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.4/program, so I had
added this directory to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Unfortunately, this directory also has a library
libfreetype.so.9, which confuses gimp.

When I removed the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting, gimp
behaved normally again. But now I have 'not found'
libraries with openoffice executable. Is that bad?

Regards,
Rob.
