I just try to install a recent version of openoffice.
It's delivered as 27 rpm file with no relative dpendencies,
that mean they must all be installed separately.
At first I copy them in the same folder (~/temp) and set
this folder as install folder in yast.
I disable any other install source.

vs
SUSE-Linux-10.1-beta4-i386-CD1.iso

distribution) and to remove the "OSS" string.
The OSS string get
