RPM Based Linux distributions

The RPM package manager is a powerful tool you can use to deploy software packages both locally and throughout a network.

Documentation note.png These instructions assume you have downloaded and extracted the Apache OpenOffice installation files.

Install

  1. Become root if necessary 
    su -
  2. Change directory to: 
    <OpenOffice.org_unzip-dir>/RPMS
  3. The RPMS directory contains RPM packages for Apache OpenOffice as well as Gnome and KDE integration.
    • For users with KDE, you can remove the Gnome integration RPM: 
    rm openoffice.org-gnome-integration-<version>.rpm
    • For users with Gnome, you can remove the KDE integration RPM: 
    rm openoffice.org-kde-integration-<version>.rpm
  4. Install into the standard /opt directory 
    rpm -ivh *.rpm
    Documentation note.png If you prefer to install Apache OpenOffice in a different location, use the -prefix option. 
     rpm -ivh –prefix <install-dir> *.rpm
  5. To install the Apache OpenOffice in the menus: 
    cd desktop-integration

    Find the RPM for your specific Linux distribution and install it: 

    rpm -ivh openoffice.org-<distribution>-menus_<version>.rpm

You can safely delete the Apache OpenOffice installation packages after the install is complete.

Uninstall

Do not delete the Apache OpenOffice files from the file system. You must use either the Apache OpenOffice Java setup or the RPM package manager to uninstall Apache OpenOffice.

  1. Become root if necessary 
    su -
  2. Create a file 'ooo_packages' with all Apache OpenOffice related RPM packages 
    rpm -qa | grep openoffice > ooo_packages
  3. Check the content of this file carefully. All packages in this list will be removed. This list does not include the JRE package that was installed if you used the Apache OpenOffice installation set that includes JRE.
  4. To remove all Apache OpenOffice related packages: 
    rpm -e 'cat ooo_packages'

DEB Based Linux Distributions

The APT or DPKG package manager is a powerful tool you can use to install, update and remove DEB packages, and is provided as part of some Linux distributions such as Debian and Ubuntu.

Documentation note.png If you have the RPM package and do not want to download the DEB package, you can convert the RPM files to DEB files using the following command: 
   sudo alien -d --scripts *.rpm
Documentation note.png There are installation scripts written that may be useful for experienced users. For more information see the following:

http://installation.openoffice.org/source/browse/installation/setup_native/scripts/

Install

  1. Become root if necessary 
    su -
  2. Change directory to: 
    <OpenOffice.org_unzip-dir>/DEBS
  3. The DEBS directory contains DEB packages for OpenOffice.org as well as Gnome and KDE integration.
    • For users with KDE, you can remove the Gnome integration DEB: 
    rm openoffice.org-gnome-integration-<version>.deb
    • For users with Gnome, you can remove the KDE integration DEB: 
    rm openoffice.org-kde-integration-<version>.deb
  4. Install into the standard /opt directory 
    dpkg -i *.deb
    Documentation note.png If you prefer to install Apache OpenOffice in a different location, use the --instdir=<directory> option. 
    dpkg -i --installdir=<install-dir> *.deb
  5. To install the Apache OpenOffice in the menus: 
    cd desktop-integration
dpkg -i openoffice.org-debian-menus_<version>.deb

You can safely delete the Apache OpenOffice installation packages after the install is complete.

Uninstall

Do not delete the Apache OpenOffice files from the file system. You must use either the Apache OpenOffice Java setup or the DEB package manager to uninstall Apache OpenOffice.

  1. Become root if necessary 
    su -
  2. To remove all Apache OpenOffice related packages: 
    apt-get remove openoffice.org*
