openoffice 2.3 installation

[Roger Searle]

Hi, I have the OpenOffice 2.3 deb download but am not sure how to do the 
install - this is a Mepis 6.5 installation.  I have all the deb files 
extracted in a folder along with the desktop integration file.  On a 
SuSE box yesterday the equivalent was executing rpm -Uvh *.rpm. 

Cheers,
Roger
