Yes, uninstall the old openoffice.org-core-1.9.89 pre 3 manually and
then install the new 1.9.89-3. Between -1 and -3 theres a size
optimization gone into the spec which dramatically reduces the space
required for duplicate wizard resource data copied throughout the
langpacks, unfortunately this replaces a dir with a soft link which
causes grief on an update of -1 to -3, though not for someone upgrading
from fc3 to fc4t2. The disruption is a bit unfortunate, but its a huge
space saving.
