Hi...no problems...just asking for advice. I have been testing the
beta builds of LO since it came out and
use openSUSE as my main operating system. On my "production" machine,
I have been using the "Stable"
builds provided by the SUSE repository which has worked fine. If
there any SUSE development people who
monitor this list, I hope that they chime in.
It seems as if the stable repository is ULTRA conservative...as I wait
for updates to the latest stable branch,
they are still pushing version 3.3.3. I have had no trouble at all
with version 3.4.2. 3.4.3 is already in RC status...
why the delay? So...my question is this: With absolutely no trouble
using the "vanilla" builds...I am thinking of
going to the LO vanilla latest stable builds.
What advantages does the SUSE builds (on SUSE) have over the vanilla
builds, if any? I am not too worried
about desktop integration, as it seems as if the vanilla builds
integrate and work fine (and look good too)....
Sorry if this is a bother and cluttering the list, but I just want
some advice from those "out there"...and/or any
word from the SUSE people what their master plan is with the stable
repository. The UNSTABLE is still
pushing 3.4.2 as if it's cutting edge...while 3.4.3 is already out
there. Of course, on my "production" environment,
I will be only using a stable build anyway...but I want to move
forward faster than the SUSE repository is....
Hi. I use 3.3.4 from the LO site on my Suse boxes in the office and have
never had problems. On my laptop that is not essential I use 3.4.1 to
follow the more advanced changes, generally without problem. I also have
OOO3.2.1 on the office Suse boxes as sometimes I need to go backwards to
open a document correctly. There were a couple of quirks I found to
installing the LO RPMs on my Suse.
