It's normal as you installing on rhel. The only package from Desktop integration you need is "openoffice.org-redhat-menus"

Something seems badly wrong here to me if your attempt to install a Red Hat package is giving you errors to do with SuSE and Mandrake packages. Are you sure you have the right package? Where did you get it from - did it automatically come from a proper RH Repo or did you download it from somewhere 'random'?
