go to the following site and download and install the latest version. I
know it's an unstable version but it's perfectly fine. It's been
specially built for SuSE 8.2 as well.

<http://www.usr-local-bin.org/abiword.php> for the latest version of
Abiword...

<http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=15518&release_id=84373>
and pick the correct language pack.
