Problem installing Openoffice using blastwave


I did this:

Quote:
bash-3.00$ sudo pkg-get -i openofficeeses
WARNING: gpg not found
No worries... you already have version 2.2 of openofficeeses
If you doubt this message, run 'pkg-get -U', then run
'pkg-get upgrade openofficeeses'
Even so this appears:
Code:
-bash-3.00# pkginfo CSWopenofficeeses
application CSWopenofficeeses openofficeeses - OpenOffice.org office suite, Spanish Spain
But i dont know how to run openoffice, no command comes when i press TAB on a console.
thanks in advance

Blastwave's commands are normally located in /opt/csw/bin. You should first start by adding this to your PATH.

This command will tell you where StarOffice and OpenOffice binaries are located:
Code:
grep "program/soffice " /var/sadm/install/contents

Usually OO just replaces the standard soffice that's already in your path (by default).

No need to make it complicated by using blastwave. OO has pre-built Solaris packages that work great with the built in package management.
