Also if you change 'droplet' to 'soffice' in Info.plist's CFBundleExecutable key, it should work...

So... just need to figure out what droplet is doing wrong...

It seems to be using 'ps' and expecting to see a child process of X11.app appear.


I see:

  sh -c ps -x -o ppid | grep 14830 | wc -l

where 14830 seems to be the X11.app process:

14830/0x4f714f0: 7145 write_nocancel(0x2, "X11.app: main(): argc=1\n\0", 0x18) = 24 0

While I haven't got a Tiger machine handy, my assumption is that X11 was forking Xquartz in the past, and the 'droplet' was waiting for that to avoid starting soffice before the X socket was set up.
