------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jan 18 06:54:54 -0800 2006 ------- I do not know if it is a bug, but it is really not a nice feature in my case :-( This is the same situation for unixes (solaris and linux in my case). In our software development department (about 300 peoples), all our software tools are installed in a specific networked shared home (/home/tools) and are owned by a specific user (toolsmgr). With the native installers of OpenOffice.org 2.0, it is nearly impossible to install it in this conditions. The install_solaris.sh script (downloaded from the developpers resources) allowed me to succeed on this platform, but I can not install openOffice.org 2.0 on our Linux RedHat EL4 machines because rpm can not be executed in install mode without root privileges... Currently, the only option I see to keep our tools homogeneous for every platforms is to keep OpenOffice.org 1.1... You should probably not define or limit the deployment model of OpenOffice.org in place of the users : some are using it on their own box, others rely on an external administrator, others split up the administrative responsabilities between teams, etc. It is probably better to let people like BlastWave, Ubuntu, Debian, RedHat, etc. doing this packaging job : it is their reason to be. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
