Kann/darf/sollte man Open Office 3 auf dem AAO installieren?

Hallo,

Open Office.org ist ja nun in der Version 3.0 erhältlich.
Kann man das auch auf dem Acer Aspire One 110L installieren?
Ich habe es heruntergeladen und der Installer startet auch. Aber ich traue mich noch nicht, die Installation durchzuführen.

Wie ist Eure Meinung?

Hi,

ich habe zwar OpenOffice durch die speicherplatzschonenderen Programm Abiword und Gnumeric ersetzt, aber Macles hat bereits etwas zu OpenOffice 3.0 geblogt :http://macles.blogspot.com/

Installing OpenOffice 3.0 on Acer Aspire One Linux
The final version of OpenOffice 3.0 has just been uploaded, and will be officialy announced tomorrow. A preview of all new features and improvements is available here. Unlike with OpenOffice 2.4 it's impossible to do an update the Fedora way on the AA1, simply because the newest version will only be build for Fedora 10 and won't work. That's why the official general RPMs have to be used. The instructions are the same regardless if you're still using 2.3 as it is preinstalled on the AA1 or already upgraded to 2.4 as described here.

Before removing the already installed version the custom icons have to be backed up, because a new installation will overwrite them with low resolution icons that don't scale well.
You may see a connection refused error message appear whenever you use sudo, ignore it.

sudo cp /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/openofficeorg* $HOME

Proceed and uninstall the old version.

sudo yum remove openoffice\*

The new version can now be downloaded from an official mirror. The download path below will get the english version. If you'd like another language edit the lang variable, en-US in this case. All available languages can be seen here, but not all of them are already updated.

wget "http://openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org/?product=OpenOffice.org&os=linuxintel&lang=en-US&version=3.0.0"

Extract the file and install the RPMs, it takes a while.

tar -zvxf OOo*
sudo rpm -i OOO*/RPMS/*rpm
sudo rpm -i OOO*/RPMS/desktop-integration/openoffice.org3.0-redhat*

The path to the desktop icons need to be changed and the original icons restored.

sudo ln -fs /opt/openoffice.org3/share/xdg/calc.desktop \
/usr/share/applications/openoffice.org-1.9-calc.desktop

sudo ln -fs /opt/openoffice.org3/share/xdg/impress.desktop \
/usr/share/applications/openoffice.org-1.9-impress.desktop

sudo ln -fs /opt/openoffice.org3/share/xdg/writer.desktop \
/usr/share/applications/openoffice.org-1.9-writer.desktop

sudo sed -e's/org3-/org-/' -e's/%U//' -i.1 /opt/openoffice.org3/share/xdg/*

sudo mv $HOME/openofficeorg* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps
sudo gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor

Finally the desktop must be made aware of the changes, which is solved via a simple reboot.

Hallo Mexsalem,


vielen Dank für Deine Antwort, das hat in der Tat gut funktioniert! Eine vorherige Installation schlug fehl, aber nach Befolgen der Anleitung/Befehle aus Deinem Posting ging alles promlos!
