Thanks for the help! All now fully installed and up and running.
I'll have a look at the links you have provided and see if I can help in any way.

Hi,
Hi,
Have some programming background from way back yonder (Fortran, C, Pascal, C++, VBA) and would like to help - although very rusty!
So far, C++ is ~ 90% of OOo source code.
Have just built OpenOffice under Ubuntu, but have run out of knowledge in how to install it (not a Linux guru).
You'll find everything in instsetoo_native cd instsetoo_native find . -name *.tar.gz => there will be one archive containing all the .deb 1) create a folder 2) put the .tar.gz inside 3) decompress the archive 4) cd in the dir containing all the .deb cp desktop-integration/* . # notice the . sudo dpkg -i *.deb And you should be done
Will continue to peruse the docs out there.. May take some time for me to get up to speed, although I have plenty time at the moment..
If you are interested to dive into OOo code, and fix some bugs, or implement new features, I invite you to have a look on the OOo wiki.
