Re: OO in Lenny?

But, as far as I know, Debian's OO package already is Go-OO.

"If you run Ubuntu, openSUSE, Debian, or Mandriva, among other
distributions, then whenever you run OpenOffice.org you don't run the
"official" version, but rather Go-OO, an office suite based on the
OpenOffice.org source code. Go-OO includes enhancements and functions
that haven't been accepted by Sun, and that may never be, because of
licensing, business, or other reasons."

By the way, while we are talking about OO, anyone knows how I can open
password-protected documents (created in MS Office) in Debian's OO?

Or you can download and install the debs from opeoffice.org. Works fine for
me in Lenny.


These are better:

Read about it here:

Go-oo is what OOo would be if Sun would accept outside patches easily.
