Ubuntu Tweak

Add OpenOffice.org Source

Asked by Fernando Escobar

My request is that if you think you could add the openoffice.org source and if possible a way for Ubuntu tweak to uninstall old versions of openoffice.org and install the newest version (for example, uninstall openoffice.org 3.1. and install openoffice.org. 3.2) will be extremely helpful not only for novice Linux users but also for those of us who are in between experience with Linux.

One of the biggest issues of a lot users is the difficulty in upgrading openoffice.org from an older version to the newer version. Also, if possible adding some popular openoffice.org extensions as an addition.

Thank you for your consideration.

Your request is useful. But there's no usable official repository for OpenOffice 3.2.

OpenOffice is a big application and it's not easy to make package for it. If there'is packages available, I will add.

Can you help with this problem?
