It seems, reading messages on the Italian mailing list and forum, that
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119424
(which apparently would be fixed by including a newer version of the Microsoft VC redistributable) is effectively blocking the installation of OpenOffice in some circumstances (due to the bug, the related part of the installer tries to write in C:\ even when it is forbidden by policy).

Can someone who knows more check whether the redistributable upgrade is low-risk and can be included in 3.4.1? Those users are currently unable to install OpenOffice at all, if reports are correct.

Regards,
  Andrea.
