This happens every time for me (since I use the official release).

My fix is similar to the following:

rpm -qa | grep -i ooobasis > foo.txt
rpm -qa | grep -i openoffice >> foo.txt
rpm -e `cat foo.txt`

The first two lines add a list of the OOo RPMs in foo.txt
The third line removes them all.

After I do this, then I re-install the official OOo. My problem is always that some of the libraries are not properly linked if I do not do this.

Yesterday I upgraded Fedora 13 to Fedora 14, including a lot of updates
since Fedora 14 was released. Today none of my launch menu items will
launch the program. The program files appear to be intact in /opt/, but
nothing works. From the command line I go to the folder containing
(e.g.) swriter, type swriter, and get an error that there is no such
command.

I tried reinstalling, but yum said all the packages are already
installed. That is, except I didn't reinstall the desktop integration
package. I suspect reinstalling it might cure the problem, but I don't
know which package to install:

      ...freedesktop-menus...
      ...mandriva-menus...
      ...redhat-menus...
      ...suse-menus...

It's probably either freedesktop or redhat, but I don't want to install
the wrong one. I can't remember which one I used before, and I can't
find anything in the documentation.

Can someone help me get my OOo working again?
