Re: Qt-Only Version?
by Aaron J. Seigo on Monday 08/Jan/2007, @19:51
it's not dcop, it's loading all the libs and starting necessary support daemons such as kded and what not.

you're probably not saving as much with xfce as you think if you're running kde apps in it.

Yes, I agree. I guess that's sort of my point, is there any way to make Koffice compile as Qt-only or something?

    No, but you could try AbiWord perhaps?

    The simple answer is no.

    The long answer is due to all the functionality that KOffice pulls in from kdelibs so it doesn't have to do all that work itself. Like the file dialogs, config dialogs, toolbars, printing, auto-saving, config backend, kparts, and so forth... removing the kdelibs dependency would cause KOffice to re-implement this all in-house, so you really wouldn't be saving anything.

      indeed; you'd get open office all over again at the cost of a gargantuan development effort.

        and - Koffice with the KDElibs is still smaller than OO.o itself...
