------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Oct 14 16:07:49 -0700 2006 ------- Currently, debian users and users of non-rpm-based distros have to struggle with rpm packages. Why not a firefox-type installation? So to install, you would have to do the following: 1. download openoffice.tar.gz 2. tar xvzf openoffice.tar.gz 3. cd openoffice 4. ./soffice and you're done. This is much easier and distro friendly. thanks PS.
