You hve to use "rpmbuild --rebuild openoffice.org-2.0.0-3.1.2.src.rpm" to compile the source rpm into binaries. Or, just download the binary package and install from that. -- John ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
