You don't have to give up the package manager as OO is distributed as a bunch of rpm files that you can just install with "rpm -i *.rpm" after you un-tar the original distribution file. And OO itself will tell you when there is an update available. Don't forget to put "exclude=openoffice*" in /etc/yum.conf to prevent any possibility of conflict. Install the latest version of the Sun jre and tell OO where to find it (Tools - Options - Java) for best results. You lose nothing at all by using the "official" OO on Fedora Linux. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
