Upgrading to OpenOffice 3.2

by Fred on Feb.13, 2010, under openSUSE

Add the OpenOffice STABLE repo using zypper (if not already)

sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/OpenOffice.org:/STABLE/openSUSE_11.2 OOo_STABLE

Update using zypper, with following commands. Since the regular OpenOffice doesn’t come from this repository, you have to use the –from parameter

sudo zypper dup --from OOo_STABLE

Note: It is a double-dash in front of the “from” parameter. Thanks for the comments.

    a typo ?

    /home/vavai # zypper dup -from OOo_STABLE
    Too many arguments.
    Usage:
    dist-upgrade (dup) [options]

    I’m using following parameter to upgrading Oo :
    zypper dup -d –from OOo_STABLE

    It is a double-dash indeed. The site is rendering it as a single dash. If in doubt, run a zypper dup –help :) Thanks for the comment.

    Sick and tired of getting low amounts of useless visitors for your website? Well i wish to inform you of a fresh underground tactic that makes me personally $900 each day on 100% AUTOPILOT. I could truthfully be here all day and going into detail but why dont you merely check their site out? There is really a great video that explains everything. So if your serious about making effortless hard cash this is the site for you. Auto Traffic Avalanche
