Or, even more effective, they could have done the same, but with the source code, like this: http://www.tigen.org/kevin.kofler/ooo-fc6.diff Of course, due to the wonderful feature that is patch -R, it's probably illegal to even link to this diff if you're in the US, just as it's illegal to link to http://rpm.livna.org but as I'm not in the US, I don't care. > There is no way for the original writers to know ifwhat changes have been > made to their code. There is a way, that's what diff is for. :-) Moreover, Red Hat says they sent the changes they made to the OO.o project, so they should know what RH changed. Kevin Kofler
