Hi Ingo,

Thank you very much. I got some replies from the german community about the Java installer, and have now completely put those instructions first.

Regarding the instructions using pkg, which ofcourse must stay in the document, will installing the packages in the incorrect order lead to a non-working installation of OOo?

Hello Per,

I recommend to use the Java GUI Installation Wizard, that is included in the OpenOffice with JRE installation sets. In this case you only have to use the "setup", that is part of the installation set for installation, maintenance and uninstallation. Without Java GUI Installer there are not many changes in the installation process of OOo 3.x compared with OOo 2.x. But because of the new 3-layer-structure of the product, you first have to install the ure package (openofficeorg-ure), then the packages starting with "ooobasis" and finally the brand packages starting with "openofficeorg3".
The Java GUI Installer of course takes care of this layering.

For Windows and Linux there are very good installation instruction from Martin Bayer (perhaps an English translation is still missing):

Hi,

We are working on updating the installation instructions for OpenOffice.org 3 on Solaris x86 and SPARC.

The current instructions is mentioned below, and is in a desperate need of update.


Solaris Installation

Installation
1.Unpack the image into a directory. For example, the following command will unpack into the current directory:
gunzip -c OOo_*_Solaris*_install.tar.gz | tar -xf -
This creates a new subdirectory which includes the installation-files.
Use the ls command to find the name of the new directory then use the cd command to enter it. 2.cd into the packages subfolder. In this Directory you will find the needed packages to install OpenOffice.org and a package for the desktop-integration in Gnome.
3.Run su to become the root user.
4.If Gnome is not installed on your system, delete the subdirectory gnome-desktop-integration 5.To permanently avoid recurring queries at the installation, you should produce an admin file with the following content:
   action=nocheck
   conflict=nocheck
   idepend=nocheck.
You can do this with the following commands:
   echo action=nocheck >admin
   echo conflict=nocheck >>admin
   echo idepend=nocheck >>admin
6.Install the packages with:
   pkgadd -a admin -d . openoffice.org*
7.Install any language packs needed for OpenOffice.org.

Removal
No info. Probably pkgrm


Can anyone complete the instructions for the guide for the 3 versions?
