Open Office Configuration?

[Dave Andruczyk]

How did you install openeoffice?  Did you use anything to change the default
install path ?  It's possible you found a bug in that there may be a hardcoded
path in openoffice.  ou could try and fake it out with a symlink:

run the following as root:
ln -s /opt/OpenOffice.org1.1.1 /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.1

This way if openoffice.org looks for something in
/usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.1/share/basic/Gimmicks,  it is redirected to
/opt/OpenOffice.org1.1.1/share/basic/Gimmicks/ instead.
