I note that Fedora have seen fit to build a private version of OpenOffice.org with changes in the user interface that I find un-palatable. Consequently I wish to remove all trace of this version and install the "real" thing.
If you're referring to just the different icon theme (which I also rather dislike), you can change this by opening OpenOffice.org, then selecting "Options" from the "Tools" menu. Then, in the "OpenOffice.org" section, select the "View" item and you can change the icon theme using the "Icon size and style" option. The "Default" icon theme is the iconsas shipped from upstream. You could also try the other ones there such as Crystal (which is meant to be KDE-like) and such.
It seems that the FC5 build did not use RPM to install this product and I would therefore be grateful for any advice on the recommended method of removal. I assume that using find with appropriate use of rm -r might be a sledgehammer to crack this nut, but it's all I can think of currently.
If you really want to remove it, you can simply `yum remove openoffice.org-core` as root, as all of OpenOffice.org depends on these core components and thus will be removed with them.
