I installed openoffice rpms from the openoffic.org site. The rpms contain a program called base. This program requires JRE.
Anyway, I'd like to experiment with this program. I have not ever installed Java on my linux computer before.
What runtime package is needed and how would you compile and install it to work with OpenOffice.org? I tried to compile a nosrc package and did not have much success with my attempts. (java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.01-1jpp.nosrc.rpm). Is this the correct package required?
Any leads appreciated.
