[opensuse] OpenOffice upgrade for SUSE 10.0
Hi, I would like to upgrade OpenOffice on openSUSE 10.0 to the latest version. I searched for updated packages on e.g. the build service but didn't find any. Is there a location with the latest OpenOffice version specially build for openSUSE 10.0? I would like a specific package i.s.o. the version from openoffice.org.

What does i.s.o. mean? Google just gave me the ISO (worldwide federation of national standard bodies), which seem unlikely to fit here. In any case the rpms from openoffice.org work it greatly. I am using ooorg 2.1 on 10.0 and 10.2 without any problems. regards Eberhard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

"ISO" may also refer to a standard disk image, for making CDs. Most Linux distros are available this way. You download the ISO files and then use them to burn the CDs or DVD. I have seen mention of an ISO file for making an OpenOffice CD, but I haven't found a working link to the current version. Google ISO 9660 for more info. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

*bonk* :-) In the OP's post, i.s.o probably means "instead of", rather than the more usual "in search of". -- The best way to accelerate a computer running Windows is at 9.81 m/s² -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You're right, I meant instead of. Is it a valid abbreviation? I followed the advice to use the original OpenOffice download, works great on PC and laptop.

Not that I'm aware of. "Instead" is one word, so you wouldn't use two letters for it. Also since "ISO" refers to a commonly used disk image (in addition to the standards organization), and the discussion is about OpenOffice, which is available as an ISO image, that is what I assumed.

I'm quite happy with it, though I use the Novell versions, both 32 & 64 bit.
Kind regards from the Netherlands,
