OK, it's working now.
Do as Andreas says, only also do an EXPORT
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/Office50/lib before running the
installer. Then it all works. (I messed about for ages because of a
silly schoolgirl error - didn't export the LD_LIBRARY_PATH I'd set).
The only problem I'm having now, is the same problem I'm having with
Word Perfect 8: Printing. I've set up my box to print to a Samba printer
elsewhere on the net, and console, KDE apps and Netscape (for instance)
all print to it fine, but StarOffice and Word Perfect insist on trying
to print to the Letter sized paper bin. It's very annoying. I've changed
the configuration to A4 on StarOffice everywhere I could find it, and it
just ignores me. Word Perfect doesn't even seem to give me an option.
It seems ironic to me that major commercial applications whom you would
expect need more than most to have printing capability (ie: office-grade
wordprocessors), are the only apps that can't seem to do it properly!
