OpenOffice.org 3.2.0 Build 9319 Available for openSUSE

The openSUSE Build Service repository for OpenOffice Unstable has received OpenOffice.org 3.2.0, build 9319. I’m not sure if this is the final build from OpenOffice.org, as their release schedule doesn’t have a final target date for 3.2 release, due to the Holiday’s.

But the above package is available, and I’ve installed and it’s working very well.

Major Features and Moto from OpenOffice.org:

    To install for openSUSE (note this is in the Unstable repository) do the following steps:

    Add the Repository

    sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/OpenOffice.org:/UNSTABLE/openSUSE_11.2/ openSUSE\ 11.2\ OpenOffice\ Unstable

    Make the Repository Refresh

    sudo zypper mr -r openSUSE\ 11.2\ OpenOffice\ Unstable

    Update

    sudo zypper up

    (note: you can do the above for openSUSE 11.1 and 11.0, you just need to change 11.2 to 11.1 or 11.0)

      Fine. As there doesn’t look to be possible to report bug for OpenOffice.org 3.2 in Novell’s Bugzilla, I try here:

      There looks to be a bug in OpenOffice.org 3.2.0 Build 9319, which I’ve tried on openSUSE 11.2 x86_64 and 11.1 x86_64 and i586, all with Gnome desktop:

      The OOo quickstarter has to be re-enabled for each logout and logon before qs appears in the Gnome panel systray. Re-enable here means first disable qs and finish the tools>option menu with OK, and thereafter enable the qs checkbox again. Then qs appears in the systray during the current session.

      I wish I could find a manual oh how to create visualized apps step by step. Do you know of any?
      Are there any manuals/books available to learn how to use ZAV 8 for newbies. I also would like any links that you may have to be able to learn how to create the snapshots, virtual applications, msi’s to virtual apps – any information would be greatly appreciated. I have downloaded the Novell ZAV 8.0 user guide but this is not helping me learn the application to create virtual applications. I tried the snapshot method and this did not work for Open Office 3.2.1.
      Please keep in mind that this is my first time using Novell Zenworks Vitalization v8.
      I am using XP SP3 on a 1.6Ghz system that is on a SLES 10 SP3 / OES2
      SP2 network with ZENworks 7 SP1.

      Please help! ASAP
      Thank you!
