Re: [CentOS] centos 5.2 for real this time
Thanks Johnny, I'll look into it. (Trying to remove the CentOS version, and install the OO.o rpms.) I'll also try Ross' suggestion. (the 5.2 upgrade is still happily chugging along with the downloads at 09h50 (-4), at #145 of 222 downloads.)

Re: [CentOS] centos 5.2 for real this time
Just reread your message. I was still having problems with the 2.0 centos version coming back even though I'd removed it. I tried Ross' suggesting, it removed things successfully (for both 2.0.whatever and 2.4.1.) But the new 2.4.1 won't install because package jre-1.6.0_04-fcs is already installed. Grrr. I'm tempted to keep the 2.3 version that comes with the 5.2 upgrade, I didn't notice any difference between 2.3 and 2.4, and I won't have to constantly upgrade every time there's a latest greatest OO.o ...

(Seems that's why I like CentOS to begin with!) You can remove jre-1.6 then install OOo, or download OOo that doesn't include the JRE.
