Use "Yum" to do the stuff that you are trying to do..... it will do
everything required....

Hello,

I have FC5 which runs on x86_64.
I tried to download the OpenOffice tar and instrall it (by
rpm -Uvih *rpm) and it gave errors
becaust it looks for some 32 bit libraries (of gnome-vfs2-devel.i386 and
GConf2-devel.i386).
On the other hand, trying to install these 32 libraries gave an error.

Also trying to yum install openoffice.org-base
gave an error:

Transaction Check Error: file

any idea what is the way to install open office on FC5 running x86_64 ?

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,
MR
