OpenOffice.org is a full-featured open-source office suite that is compatible
|
|
with all other major office software.
|
|
|
|
This script builds a Slackware package from the official binary (RPM's)
|
|
distributed by openoffice.org. Everything needed by the application should
|
|
be built statically into it, so there aren't any dependencies not satisfied
|
|
by a normal installation. A java runtime environment (jre) is suggested by
|
|
openoffice.org, but it is not required (note that jre is part of a standard
|
|
installation of Slackware).
|
|
|
|
Please don't file bug reports relating to the fact that the resulting package
|
|
doesn't open MS Office files by default. Default applications to open specific
|
|
file types is a per-user setting, and and installing some application should
|
|
not change it. See these two links for more info:

Please don't file reports about us not using the the 'slackware-menus' package
|
|
included in the desktop-integration/ directory. We don't use that package for
|
|
the following reasons:
|
|
1. The package installs to /opt/openoffice.org2.4, but then a symlink is
|
|
created in /etc to that same directory (/etc/openoffice.org2.4).
|
|
This is not expected behavior from Slackware packages - we don't typically
|
|
put binary files in /etc, and we certainly don't have entire software
|
|
packages installed there.
|
|
2. It installs the icons to /opt/kde/share/icons instead of /usr/share/icons.
|
|
This is fine if you're running kde on Slackware 11.0 or earlier, but for
|
|
those people who use gnome or anything on Slackware 12.0 or later, it's
|
|
a Bad Thing. The generic freedesktop menu integration package is better
|
|
in that respect, as it puts everything in /usr/share/icons/
|
|
3. The only other thing the 'slackware-menus' package does is set up the
|
|
symlinks for the *.desktop files in /usr/share/applications, and it's done
|
|
with them linked from /etc/openoffice.org2.4... Since we don't want the
|
|
link to /etc at all, this is useless to us.
|
|
|
|
Be sure to look at the script for some optional things you can do when building
|
|
(disable the Java loader and add the Optimization Solver).
|
|
|
|
NOTE: DO NOT use OpenOffice.org's built-in updater to update after installing
|
|
with this script.
