My understanding is that there would be:

A package "lsb-sun-staroffice-5.2.i386.rpm" with the registry name
"sun-staroffice-5.2" installed in /opt/sun/staroffice, which is not to be
confused with "lsb-openoffice-6.3.2.i386.rpm" that is installed in
/opt/openoffice.   The end-user gets to pick which to use, but it does not
impact the system.

Hi

Hmmm...
I'm trying to understand the following text from LSB v.1.0
"All LSB package names must begin with the prefix "lsb-" to avoid
conflicting with existing packages used by Linux distributions."


I have interpreted that so, that when a third party make's a software
that works on LSB based ditro, then they should use that prefix.
Eg. SUN with StarOffice: lsb-staroffice-5.2.i386.rpm

What do you think?

Cheers
