[SOLVED] openoffice.org RPMS won't convert to tgz

I'm trying to convert the OpenOffice.org 3.1 RPMs to tgz but I get the following error every time:

Code:

vince@HOME:~/Downloads/OOO310_m19_native_packed-2_en-US.9420/RPMS$ rpm2tgz *.rpm
ERROR:  rpm2cpio failed.  (maybe ooobasis3.1-base-3.1.1-9420.x86_64.rpm is not an RPM?)

This happens for every single RPM.

I can't install them using RPM either I get this error:

Code:

root@HOME:/home/vince/Downloads/OOO310_m19_native_packed-2_en-US.9420/RPMS# rpm -ivh *.rpm
rpm: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

You need the seamonkey-solibs package in the L series.
If you don't do a full installation of Slackware, then you should already know how to troubleshoot the issues that you cause yourself by not doing so.

Not directly an answer to your question, but did you know there is a slackbuild for this? Open Office 3.1.1 Slackbuild in 32 or 64 bit.

Yeah absolutely, I unchecked seamonkey-solibs by mistake it seems. I thought it was installed. Oops.
