First you have to uninstall all previous OpenOffice.org packages with the package manager that uses Mandriva. Make sure there are no folder left after the installation. And resetting your user profile might be useful too. > Where do I find these directories? Did you install OpenOffice.org from Mandriva's repositories or downloaded from www.openoffice.org? If the later, directories are in /opt/openoffice.org/ /opt/openoffice.org3/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. You are the assignee for the bug.
