How to use Openoffice.org suite in Tahr6.0.6-k4.1.3.0-uefi?

#1 Post by MrDuckGuy »

I'm one of those people who disdain both 'LibreOffice' and 'Abiword'.
If given a choice, I'll put up with Abiword, but OpenOffice (to me) is
SO much better.

Why doesn't Puppy agree with me? That was kind of rhetorical.

I downloaded the current version:

The file is:
Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.7_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz.

Do I unpack this directly into /opt/?

Thanks in advance.

Unpack in /mnt/home. You'll find a dir of debs packages. Use Pads or Alien2puppy to combine them in a single dir and then sfs. You have to edit the desktop files in /opt/openoffice4/share/xdg.

EDIT: I have sent to you a Private Message.

Gzip compressed for larger use in old puppies.

EDIT: can someone test the following openoffice-4.1.7-en_US-x86_64.sfs?

Bionicpup64 8.0
Seems to be working OK.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older.... This is not what I expected :shock:
