Gustav,
I'm chasing down the StarOffice RPM as well. So far, I have learned that an
RPM for StarOffice V5.1a (latest release) is provided by Suse
http://www.suse.com. It was included as part of the latest SuSe distro
(V6.3), but for the life of me, I cannot find the rpm on the Suse ftp site
or anywhere else for that matter.
The Suse Star Office rpm has been reported to install/work ok on Red Hat and
Mandrake distro's. I'll post the URL when I find it, unless someone provides
this info first.
