Not sure how to help you.
I'm using the AbiWord from Rawhide, not from AbiSource.
I rebuilt it in fc3 (rpmbuild --rebuild src.rpm) to make sure the dependencies were fc3 met, and not rawhide.
If you want to try it -
http://mpeters.us/yum/fedora/3/i386/RPMS.bleed/abiword-2.2.0-2.i386.rpm
Thanks.. this rpm. worked like a charm. Why do you think that with Abiword coming on the install disks it is not listed in the yum updates?
Also.. my I ask a OT questions...... As a 'light user' of a word and excel types of programs... I personaly found OO too much .... hard to explain exactly what I mean...
So I tried gnomeric and abiword... I do notice and abi word cannot handle some of my old word templetes and OO writer can.
Why do you use... abiword or gnumeric v OO.... Just wondering... basicly.. trying to figure out .. (as a new linux convert) which Office product I am going to invest in learning aobut.
