Hi guys, I want to install OpenOffice.org on my Fedora 11 linux box. From where do i find the OpenOffice.org repositories for Fedora 11? I searched it in the package manager and couldn't find one in there. Any other location i should be looking? Thanks in advance... :rolleyes:
You can try and download it from the official openoffice.org website. They have a nice and sleek tutorial for installing and configuring OpenOffice for RPM-based Installation. See this tutorial page : http://download.openoffice.org/commo...ons.html#linux You can download openoffice.org for fedora from here : http://download.openoffice.org :thumbup1:
Finally i found it in my package manager, but i'm confused what to install, there about 100+ search results for Open Office. Can anyone guide me which one to install? Also if there is any alternative to this, would be helpful... I'm so confused. :blink: Please help!
Search for the one which has something similar name to "openoffice-core" This would be the core package and then install the optional packages that you need to use with openoffice. If you think this is still too confusing, download the source for openoffice.org and compile it on your own. Download sources from : http://download.openoffice.org/source/3.1.1_source.html
Ok try this : Open Terminal and there type :
This should work, if this doesn't work, try only 'OO'. Do post back... :thumbup1:Code:yum install OOo
