I down-loaded the openoffice-6.0.41-5mdk rpm and got the following messages when I tried to install it on Mandrake 8.1 using the Package Manager in KDE:
rpm -U --replacepkgs /home/rpmdir/openoffice-6.0.41-5mdk.i586.rpm;echo RESULT=$? error: failed dependencies: lpddaemon is needed by openoffice-6.0.41-5mdk libstdc++3.0 >= 3.0.4-1mdk is needed by openoffice-6.0.41-5mdk libgcc_s.so.1 is needed by openoffice-6.0.41-5mdk libstdc++.so.3 is needed by openoffice-6.0.41-5mdk libgcc_s.so.1(GLIBC_2.0) is needed by openoffice-6.0.41-5mdk RESULT=1 I do not have a clue as to where to get these rpm packages. I tried www.rpmfind.net and a few of the ftp sites shown on the Mandrake web site without success. Can somebody please give me a hint? By the way, because OpenOffice uses Java 2 run time environment, I uninstalled kaffe and installed the j2re from the SUN web site. I hope this is not a dumb move. Does OpenOffice support unicode and right to left languages. I hope it does. Any help would be much appreciated. Seedkum
