Good idea. Well, I have added the Supplements dependency and YaST started to install the app subpackages (calc, writer, ...) by default. So, it should solve the main problem. It works only in the OpenOffice_org:UNSTABLE project now. I'll add the dependencies to the STABLE project ASAP. If it is not enough, I'll try to add the popup. I hope that it is possible also in the Build Service installation source. -- Best Regards, Petr Mladek software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 952 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
