you are mixing two different sources for OO: some of your installed 
packages come from the OO website, and you are trying to yum install the 
centos version on top of that.
Either remove all traces of the non-centos rpms and then install with 
yum, or stick to the ooo rpms and don't install the centos ones.
Watch out for openoffice.org-ure if you choose the second solution, that 
particular rpm has the same name in both sources, but the version number 
is higher in centos so yum might try to update it - and wreck your OO 
install.
