My StarOffice came on CD with the LINUX package.  The readme files
called for running a file as root which installed the program suite.  I
then had to go in as a regular user, not root, to install for that
user.  Actually I think they were links to the program for that user.

You might want to check the readme files that came with your
distribution, it wasn't obvious unless you read the whole thing since it
was buried. If yours is anything like mine, that might be useful.  If
not, then you at least get a better feel for the program in the
developers eyes.

See ya'
