Hello, I suggest a change in the building guide: http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step
In the last step: sudo dpkg -i unxlngx6.pro/OpenOffice/deb/install/en-US/DEBS/*.deb sudo dpkg -i unxlngx6.pro/OpenOffice/deb/install/en-US/DEBS/desktop-integration/openoffice.org3.4-debian-menus_3.4-9593_all.deb Should be changed to: sudo dpkg -i unxlngx6.pro/Apache_OpenOffice/deb/install/en-US/DEBS/*.deb sudo dpkg -i unxlngx6.pro/Apache_OpenOffice/deb/install/en-US/DEBS/desktop-integration/openoffice.org3.4-debian-menus_3.4-9593_all.deb -- Rajath S, M.Sc(Hons.)
