[Fedora-xen] Installing FC9 guest on Centos 5 fails installing OO writer2latex

[Kenneth Tanzer]

Thanks.  Does that mean FC9 on Centos just can't work, at least for now?

The VM guest is currently stuck, and won't shut down, even with a 
destroy.  I get the message below.  Is there any way to get rid of it 
short of rebooting?
