Is there any reason not to simply install the openoffice or libreoffice rpms
from their respective websites?  I've been doing that for some years, myself,
and it works well.  Just exclude the openoffice and ooobasis (or libreoffice
and libobasis) rpms in /etc/yum.conf to avoid any conflicts.

It's my understanding that the "official" openoffice rpms from Redhat are
missing some functionality that the program as downloaded directly from
Sun/Oracle or the Document Foundation have.
