Hi,

At the moment bad ... Use the port till I've merged everthing.

-> ~150 patches. There will be even more. I'll soon release a new version.

Binary packages are available from http://projects.imp.ch/openoffice

And as I said, there will be new packages next week.

I'll do this job for the next release.

So why you don't install the packages ;) ?
