R: OpenOffice doesnt work anymore after migration to FC1

[Douglas Furlong]

With the latest release of OO 1.1, it comes with an updater for the
users configuration files, so it should not be necessary to delete the
old .openoffice directory.

I am not sure if there may be a problem with using the
www.openoffice.org version of OO 1.1 full release, and the apparent
redhat RC version (please correct me if I am wrong here).

So I am not sure why an upgrade would not be possible, as far as OO is
concerned.
