libreoffice-3.3.0.4 SFS and PET
Posted: Sat 29 Jan 2011, 02:53
***EDITED Feb. 15 2011: I am working on a light version, patterned after ASRI éducation's OOolight. And, in the course of creating the .pet, I have noticed that the full libreoffice-3.3.0.4 packages posted herein, lack some things (*cough* like a full set of printer drivers *cough*) (hey, I only put in it what was in the official .deb. My only fault was ignorance and too much trust!
...so, HOLD OFF ON DOWNLOADING THESE, unless you just want to experiment. Newer, better versions will be up in a day or three.***

***edited Feb 14 2011: I created this package a few days before the Lucid Puppy 5.20 Quickpet version was announced (QuickPet->SFSGet). I have no idea how the two versions differ. I am using mine on Lucid 5.20 and it works great. However, on a computer with "only" 1 GB of ram, I have found that a 512 MB swapfile helps performance somewhat. LibreOffice is a resource hog. If using a frugal install, I recommend you have at least 512 MB of free space as shown by freememapplet, before you install this package.***
This is an unpack of the Ubuntu .deb,
LibO_3.3.0_Linux_x86_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz, downloaded yesterday from the LibreOffice website, packaged into sfs4 SFS format using my Clipper packaging script, with some changes made to the Categories and Exec lines of the .desktop files to make it suitable for the menu structure of Puppy Linux.
I have withdrawn the separate .pet package of the help files which I posted in this message slot earlier, because it had problems. I have included the help files instead in the main Libre Office package.
See next post.
