Hi Eric,
Thanks for the response. Sigh, I'm still having problem. When I
click on the URL you mentioned, I get redirected to a page whose title
is:
Index of
ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/2.4.1rc2_20080614/
and is a long list of files to download.
I'm not sure which one to pick. I picked one, I don't remember which
one, and made the change you gave below. The resultant file started
successfully, but stayed with the OpenOffice version of a spinning
disk for several minutes. I had to force-quit the application. Could
you please do one of the following:
1. provide me with more explicit instructions.
2.. mail me an updated version of main.scpt. I think I may be doing
the edit incorrectly. I'll also need explicit directions of how to
make the main.scpt change.
3. mail me an updated version of openoffice.
4. post an updated version of openoffice on a website where I could
retrieve it.
Of course, you may think of other solutions beyond those listed
above, e.g. if openoffice3.0-eng-us is real close, I can wait for it.
Thanks much for all your help!
Cheers!
Dave

I'm confused. What is the latest official US-English mac PPC

The latest stable version of en-US for PowerPC and 10.4.x and
higher is available here

I tried installing what I thought what was the latest official
build, and I kept getting timeout error messages. I must be doing
something wrong.
This is not your fault but partly ours. I did add this to the list
of showstoppers but someone else took it off for an unknown reason
and therefore this issue couldn't be discussed in the release
status meeting and so the release happend without the existing more
or less trivial fix. Since for the moment it looks like 2.4.1 is
the last version to support X11 on the Mac and we don't know if or
when there will be a 2.4.2 you have to manually fix this bug.
The how-to fix it is here
