I can only stress here (no for you, to all the users): if you do not send
the bug report to upstream adding all the information you can and being
able to provide more information when asked, your posibilities of getting
the bug report fixed are very low.

No going to happen. KOffice includes a bunch of program with very diferent
public. I have interest in kspread, kword and kivio, but I don't draw (with
or without computer) so my usage and interest in krita and karbon is only
opening them before uploading new version of koffice to make sure they work :)
Currently my opinion is the less mature apps are not in worse shape that the
koffice 1.6 shipped in Lenny, while the more mature apps seems to be superior
to those in Lenny.
