Are there REALLY that many new features that you MUST upgrade from a Stable 2.0.4 to a new 2.2.x? I can try to do it on CentOS-5 (Use the OOo RPMS from the openoffice.org site) and post how it went here. , can i use (or depend on) package from > fedora (it slightly > outdate but not too far from OO release). > Well ... you would have to rebuild a newer version other than the one on FC6 ... which MIGHT still work on CentOS-5. However, in the future as tomcat, glibc and other build requires diverge between FC6 and CentOS-5 it will be less likely to work. In a 8 months when there is no more FC6 support, that will stop working anyway. So, the best bet would be to either use the CentOS version (which will get security updates for it's lifetime ... and which MAY get some enhanced features) === OR === create a process to use the OOo RPMS directly from the OpenOffice.org website. > Having see the huge spec file (around 3700 lines), building it ourself is > really not fun :( And building a NEWER one from Fedora7 / Rawhide will be quite hard because of the Versions of packages for the Requires and BuildRequires.
