Is planned making Openoffice integrated with GTK?

Hello, I am trying to have a pure GTK Desktop, cause I'm using some applets that make GTK apps pretty.

The only application that is not GTK in my Desktop is Openoffice (I can't use abiword, openoffice is really necessary for me). I would want to know if Openoffice will be full integrated on the GTK toolkit any day...

Greetings

I'm not absolutly sure this will do what you want but try putting the below into your .bashrc

export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome

You'll need to log out and back in for it to work.

Did you have a look at the OpenOffice page on Arch's wiki ?
Especially the part :

OpenOffice 2 introduces the ability to use several toolkits for drawing and integrates into different desktop environments in a clean way. To choose by hand, you need to set the OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP environment variable, either system-wise (like in /etc/profile.d/) or in the specific shell OpenOffice.org is running in.

OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome

is the good setting.

I use Gnome and this setting is perfectly fine for me ! I hope it will be for you too ...

[andyrtr@workstation64 ~]$ namcap -i  -r depends /home/daten/arch64/packages/x86_64/openoffice-base-2.3.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz | grep gtk
openoffice-base W: Dependency included but already satisfied (gtk2)

go on and learn how packages are built. the OOo-base PKGBUILD is a nice starting point
