Well for one thing with OOoyou need a Green Hornet secret decoder ring to figure out how to install it. You have to use a /net and other options to get it to work but that's not in any readme or other docs that come with 641D binary OR source. I did remember from a distant time when I installed SO 5.2 that there were options - this after I did the OOo install and found it didn't work - but I didn't remember them. However, I never found anything on the web site and was stuck until someone on the OOo mailing list gave me an obscure URL that explained what to do. I haven't tried OOo 1.0 or whatever is the current version but maybe they do actually tell you how to install it now so you don't have to be psychic <G>.
Things like this make rpm -Uvh or rpm -ivh more and more attractive.
