Hi!
I recently removed (rpm -e) all the openoffice packages (2.0.4) from
Centos and replaced them with Sun's packages for openoffice 2.4. Works
fine.
however, now whenever I run yum update I get this:

what I'd like to know is why does it think it needs to update all those
openoffice packages? They don't exist on the machine anymore, I removed
all of 'em.
How can I get it to stop doing this?
Thanks!

Probably because "rpm -e {package name}" and "yum remove {package name}"
does different things.
I'd suggest run yum remove openoffice.org-core && yum clean all
