/snip/ Quote: You should then download an RPM version from http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html and install using the instructions at http://www.openoffice.org/download/common/instructions.html#linux-rpm End qoute.
As I mentioned in a post you will see at time = 3:48AM, I have downloaded and extracted the file mentioned, and run all the commands in the "common instructions" except number 8, which won't run. Those are the Desktop-integration rpms, and they all produce an error on my PCLOS system. It's too late to try the arrangement of running the rpms in Synaptic--they're extracted already, and the extracted rpm files now appear in Synaptic, and appear installed. Please refer to the 3:48 post for more detail. If you'd like me to post anything from the system, please advise. --doug
I accept the OP's statement that PCLOS uses Synaptic; online information is confusing about this. Some information I haveseen suggests that PCLOS's Synaptic is set by default to delete RPM files, but that there is a setting which overrides this on a case by case basis. Some information on this is given at this URL, which may now be out of date in its OpenOffice references http://www.howtoforge.com/the-perfect-desktop-pclinuxos-2010-kde-p4
