Open Office Install problems
 
Howdy all,

I'm having problems installing things like "Teamspeak" and Netsupport on my 64 bit fedora 14. Now netsupport will run in the terminal window, but won't install.
However the thing that hurts the worst right now, is "Open Office" I open a terminal window, type "su" put in the password and run the installer from a prompt cd'd to the setup file. I get back dependency errors that I don't understand. So I ran the updates and tried again. No luck. I have screenshots of the error messages in case someone could help me decode, they download to full size if they aren't read-able enough. I'm hoping that all these problems may be related.

Thanks in advance,
Bob

you NEED to use
" su -" with the -
su and su - are VERY different

also openoffice is in the fedora repos
why not use yum
Code:

su -
yum search office

the output will have Go-office ( openoffice) and KOffice

Thank you! I want to grow up to be you! That is the first anything that has worked since I decided to try this operating system to further my IT Career. I sincerely appreciate the help.
