I just tried to install unoconv on my machine, which does not have any GNOME. Every time I run unoconv, I get the following oerror: unoconv: UnoException during conversion: URL seems to be an unsupported one. The provided document cannot be converted to the desired format. The installed packages that I think makes sense here, is: openoffice.org-pyuno-2.4.2-18.3.fc9.i386 unoconv-0.3-2.rf.noarch openoffice.org-pyuno-2.4.2-18.3.fc9.i386 openoffice.org-base-2.4.2-18.3.fc9.i386 openoffice.org-headless-2.4.2-18.3.fc9.i386 openoffice.org-core-2.4.2-18.3.fc9.i386 My purpose right now, was to extract an logo (an image) from a doc file. Not sure if this is supported by unoconv. After installing openoffice.org-base, I was able to do unoconv --show, it gives a huge list of formats. Still I get this error message mentioned above.
