Just curious, but is there any reason why you would expect OOo 3 to
work under Wine?
On the face of it, this seems a rather strange thing to do.

I have installed the deb on Ubuntu linux 8.04 and it is working well.
And I have installed the windows version on Windows and it seems to be
working well, hence my question on the rationale behind installing it
on Wine.

I have not tried RC3 yet, but the Windows version of RC2 works well for me.
I was hoping for the final release version of 3.0 to be out by now. Yet it
is a good feeling that the people behind the decision is not saying that
it is "good enough" by its project release date. If there is a RC4 or RC5,
so be it. Get this version the best they can, then release it. Thereafter,
work on the next update that would have the other things that there was
not time to include in this initial version of 3.0. . . . .
Keep up the good work.
Get it "right", then do the big release of 3.0.
Too many of the big companies do not and
offer many "major" bug patches within months
after the release of their "perfected" new version.
OOo may have problems after its release, but never as
buggy as such software as MS Office and others.
