------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Dec 24 10:52:57 -0800 2006 ------- At bug # 44102, is told us that with dmake openoffice_en-US PKGFORMAT=archive, OOo will now create an archive that can be installed by: 2. tar xvzf openoffice.tar.gz 3. cd openoffice 4. ./soffice Currently, debian users and users of non-rpm-based distros have to struggle with rpm packages. Please distributed the installation in the .tar.gz archive format. RPMs are useless to many users. tar.gz will work for all Linux users. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
