Downloaded m73, came out today.
Created a new BE.
Tried the CLI update command.  All completed.  Went to start writer got 
an error message:

Next tried to launch via CLI.  Wouldn't work also:

bash-4.0$ soffice
bash: /usr/bin/soffice: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
bash-4.0$

Deleted the new BE.
Created another new BE.
Now tried the setup command.
Setup started, recognized there was a previous install.  I notice on the 
list for upgrade java was not listed.
Clicked OK to start the upgrade.
It finished sucessfully.
Openoffice now started.

Previously, when I tried the CLI upgrade I saved some text output:

This appears to be an attempt to install the same architecture and
version of a package which is already installed.  This installation
will attempt to overwrite this package.

I believe Openoffice not working has something to do with installing 
Java using pkgadd from the Openoffice upgrade command, as the setup 
install didn't include java.
