<h3>Packages for Linux Distributions (Not compiled by Apache OpenOffice
developers)
<a name="other_linux"></a></h3>
+
+<p> The Linux downloads provided on the Apache OpenOffice site (mirrors) are
generic for
+ either the RPM- or DEB-based package managers. If you have experience
in directly installing
+ these types of packages on your system, one of these types of installs
should work for you.
+ They are not specific to a particular Linux distribution.</p>
<p>Many Linux distributions now include a version of Apache OpenOffice in their
-own native package manager format (.rpm, .deb, etc.). These packages have
-been built and are supported by the distributions' own teams, not by
+own native package manager format (.rpm, .deb, etc.) either from their own
repositories
+or community repositories which they support. These packages have
+been built and are supported by the distributions' own teams or community
members, not by
Apache OpenOffice. Some distributions have strict policies around licensing,
which means they have chosen to disable parts of Apache OpenOffice which rely
on software which does not meet their criteria (e.g. the Fedora rpms have
disabled the parts of Apache OpenOffice which require Java).</p>
