Thank you very much for your reply, John! Anyway, I'm amazed that this
must be so complicated. I mean, I wouldn't expect to have to dig into the
UNO framework to get that. I thought something like a -v option should do
the job :o)

Thing is: once I developed a UNO package that worked fine for version 1.5
but would crash 2.0. So it seems to me that OOo version numbers may come
handy for installers/updaters.

UNO packages (we nowadays call them "extensions") meanwhile have a
versioning feature where the extension can tell which versions of OOo it
needs to work properly. This works at least for the "min version". I'm
not sure if this feature supports a "max version". If nobody in the know
showed up here you could try on the [email protected] list.

There is only a min version, see <http://udk.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=features&msgNo=40>. The rationale for not having a max version is that OOo's UNO interface should generally be backward compatible.
