Microsoft Office is a proprietary Windows (and Mac) app so no, it's

not supported. On the other hand, LibreOffice is a free and open

source app that can open and save to Microsoft formats so I recommend

you give it a try. If you really need Microsoft Office, there are a

few guides that explain how you can install it by using wine. I've not

personally tried in a few years. Here's one guide but there are many

others: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Microsoft_Office



Avast is proprietary software but they do have a Linux version. You

should probably contact Avast if you need more assistance with

installing it. I believe that most Ubuntu users don't need an

antivirus: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/ubuntu-help/net-antivirus.html



Some Windows apps might work on Ubuntu Linux (or Sabily, a derivative)

using Wine but in general, you're better off looking for Linux apps.

I'm not familiar with the other apps but I think Sabily's goal is to

include as much high quality open source Muslim software as possible

without needing to install other stuff afterwards.

Since it is not in Ubuntu, then it won't be included in Sabily.

  There are better extensions for that functionality, I have put 
  mgse-menu in the staging PPA [1], although I don't like the idea that

[Sabily.team] will those packages be included?

2011-12-06 الحوار Abdalrahim G. Fakhouri 

Salam Aleikum,
Hello everyone!

I hope that 11.10 won't take longer than a few days;
Anyway, may I ask a few questions?

1. Will VLC player be included in the biggest DVD?
2. What about PeaZip (peazip.sourceforge.net), will it be included?
3. Will the DVD include any independent window manager (like: OpenBox, 
BlackBox, FluxBox, ...) in addition to the main GUI ?


Thanks in advance!
A. Fakhouri

Assalam o Allaikum

I have downloaded the sabily version 11.04 ultimate. I have burnt the DVD and 
tried the sabily. It is overall good thing but I need some further information 
about this.

First of all I want to ask that do sabily support microsoft products like MS 
office and others. Secondly, please tell me that how much sabily support the 
third party softwares like I have to Install maktaba shamila and Easy Quran Wa 
Hadees Software. Similarly I use some other applications like Avast antivirus 
etc. Do sabily support all these softwares?

Please give me a complete information so that I can decide to install sabily or 
not.

Jazak Allah Khairan.
