I was not able to build 680m86 on the upcomming SUSE Linux 9.3, which
includes a new rpm check for symlinks. The new check:
    - makes relative links from absolute ones (It is useful because the relative
      symlinks are valid even if you prepare a chrooted environment but you are
      not chrooted)
    - checks for the existence of the link target (helps to find typos)

I'll attach two patches with two possible fixes:

1. patch disables the new rpm check. Unfortunately, it disables some more checks
and actions, like stripping binaries, compressing man pages. But none of the
actions is necessary for this package.

2. patch creates a dummy symlink targets, so the check passes.

The problem is only with the openofficeorg-freedesktop-menus package,
so an other solution would be to make it the same way as the suse, redhat, or
madrakelinux packages.

In fact, I don't like the current solution when the RPMs are created at this
stage. It would be better to create them when the RPMs for the application
are created. It would help to avoid the ugly symlink in /etc/ if all the RPMs
are created at once.
