[PLUG] KOffice - Error running Kvivio


I'm running Mandrake 8.0.  I downloaded the new [1.1] KOffice sources so
I could get my hands on Kvivio (Visio like diagramming program).  It
looks like a great application, and something that Linux has needed for
a long time.

I've successfuly built and installed it, but when I run it I get a
message like this:

  [mortis@kookaburra mortis]$ kivio
  koffice (lib kofficecore): ERROR: Couldn't find the native MimeType in
kivio's desktop file.  Check your installation !

I've searched on Google for that error, and it was suggested that I run
kbuildsyscoca, so I did.  I also found advice saying to copy a few files
from /usr/local/kde/share/applink/Office to my ~/.kde directory, but I
coudln't get that to work either.

Has anyone run into this and found a solution?

Thanks,
Kyle R. Burton
