Use the following instructions to install openoffice's tar.gz file in your
system:
1. Unpack the downloaded image into a directory. For example, the following
command
will unpack into the current directory:
gunzip -c OOo_*_Solaris*_install.tar.gz | tar -xf -
This creates a new subdirectory which includes the installation-files.
Use the ls command to find the name of the new directory then use the cd
command
to enter it.
2. cd into the packages subfolder. In this Directory you will find the
needed packages
to install OpenOffice.org and a package for the desktop-integration in
Gnome.
3. Run su to become the root user.
4. If Gnome is not installed on your system, delete the subdirectory
gnome-desktop-
integration
5. To permanently avoid recurring queries at the installation, you should
produce an
admin file with the following content:
action=nocheck
conflict=nocheck
idepend=nocheck.
You can do this with the following commands:
echo action=nocheck >admin
echo conflict=nocheck >>admin
echo idepend=nocheck >>admin
6. Install the packages with:
pkgadd -a admin -d . openofficeorg*
Do tell us if you encounter any problems in the process. JRE comes
preinstalled with Opensolaris 2008.05.

Ankit
