Would I have to be concerned about any issues if I put open office 2.3 on centos 4.5?

Anyone done it?

Jerry

I have it running on a fully updated CentOS 4 machine and it seems to be okay. I've only used the writer portion for a few documents though. I've been fairly absent from that laptop today.

I don't recall having any issues on 4.5 either. I've used both the writer and spreadsheet apps without incident. Seems pretty solid and I'm trying to rely on it more so I can wean myself off M$ Office for good.

Best,

Where did you get it? Is this an rpm? Built from source?...

The standard download from OpenOffice.org web site is a tarball full of RPMS.
