Any particular reason why you want to install there? Doing so may create problems as your default distro install of OOo may have left over symlinks in /usr/* even after uninstalling your distro version. However, If you really do want to do this, have a look at "Installing multiple instances of OpenOffice.org with the same version number" in the Setup Guide: http://download.openoffice.org/common/instructions.html http://documentation.openoffice.org/setup_guide2/index.html#12 Those instructions are for the rpm, but you should be able to use similar for dpkg in 'man dpkg'. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
