Any help appreciated...
On my machine with 10.4.2, xcode 2.1, fink-0.24.8-21, following
several attempts, I've apparently gotten openoffice installed;
fink list -i gives the following (drastically editied for space):
i oaf-shlibs 0.6.10-26 Object Activation Framework
i openjade 1.3.2-28 Implementation of DSSSL
i openoffice.org 1.9m121-59 Integrated office productivity
suite
i opensp3-shlibs 1.5-15 Shared Libraries for opensp3
i opensp4 1.5.1-2 SGML parser
Try the right command:
dpkg -S openoffice.org | grep /bin/
- -chris zubrzycki
<snip>
Ice-Wolf:/ gbp$ dpkg -s openoffice.org | grep /bin/
<snip> That's not the same command as Chris said to run
Ice-Wolf:/ gbp$ openoffice.org
-bash: openoffice.org: command not found
So, this says it's installed too...
I'm not sure what you were looking for piping the dpkg result to
grep (& no, I'm not sure if I'm using the right syntax or grammar
to describe what I'm trying to ask either). Here's some more info
(items above & below the o's cut out to save lots o space):
It's "soffice", so you cut that out too.

Okay (d'oh),
Ice-Wolf:/sw/bin gbp$ dpkg -S openoffice.org | grep /bin/
openoffice.org: /sw/lib/openoffice.org/program/python-core-2.3.4/bin/
python
Ice-Wolf:/sw/bin gbp$
So I now understand the importance of caps on the commands...gotta
say I'm still not sure what the command is supposed to be telling me.
I mean, I know it grepped out any occurrence of /bin/ from the first
output & then only displayed that, but what is that telling me? I
gotta say, I've been using fink for several years & love it, but
things like this just make me feel like such a newb that it's
discouraging. Just when I think I'm picking up Unix commands &
getting a little comfortable... total reversal. Ahh...
However, soffice does launch the program fine. Must admit, I don't
follow the soffice abbreviation. Is there a logic to that which I'm
overlooking?
Thanks for the really quick feedback, Chris & Alexander. That's one
of the amazing things about the fink community.
Thanks everyone for all the hard work,
Brandon Potter
