I have read the topic for freeSoftmaker promotion, and it a good program, but there are those who prefer the old version of OpenOffice3.
To try restore the disponibility packages I have examined the script broken get-OpenOffice3
and I have removed on to line 24 the number “2”
View the original line
do wget -O - $MIRROR/ 2> /dev/null | grep -q localized && break ; done
After modified
do wget -O - $MIRROR/ > /dev/null | grep -q localized && break ; done
Tested and it on my case work... wow :-)
Please to developers of consider this tips.
Or an any case for the interested here the packages modified.

2> forwards the display (as in what's being sent to the screen) towards where you want it, which in this case /dev/null which is nowhere. In other words, it hides the command's output from the user. Meaning your fix doesn't really fix anything...

will not discuss it ... However, after the change works I wonder why.
basically I just install the package that I know you do not say anything else.Posted 12 years ago # -
No, really. My 5 cents.
wget -O - $MIRROR/ 2> /dev/null | grep ...
gets the page content and and move it forth, to grep command, but hides errors (if any)wget -O - $MIRROR/ > /dev/null | grep ...
gets page content and hides it, so grep get only empty string as input, or error message from wget (if any).I don't know why we need endless loop with only one exit: if page contains word 'localized'?

I not know that command ( 2> ) I have simple tried to removed and the script at good execution.
This is the output from terminal script executed Without “2”

After 5 minutes? :/
I don't saw that script yet, but seems that endless loop breaks with timeout.Dear developers! I think that get-scripts is too hard for my not-high-end hardware. I have 1 GB of RAM on my netbook, frugal installation of SliTaz 4.0, and I never have a luck to install Office suite that way. Not enough memory!
Really, I don't want to get-office-tazpkg. I only want to get-office. Can you see the difference?
Unpacking deb, packing tazpkg, unpacking tazpkg... Maybe, better is only unpacking deb to the right places? And prepare needed files for TazPkg package manager? So, TazPkg will decide that package is installed, and TazPkg will know all about installed files, and TazPkg will possible to remove these files if you want it (like package remove). But, actually, without creating and installing real tazpkg package? I think, this is not bad idea. And it saves a lot of time and RAM resources...

Hi Aleksej
Five three minut... it a long time over attend response.
Anyway I have created for personal use the packages directly, but it is on italian language, if you downloads and change gui interface on your locale.

Hi gibor,
Oh, kindly thank you for your effort! But I don't need no one linux office due to incompatibility issues with “big brother”. It's only my interest how to make SliTaz better. For other people.
I produce a thousand of Word documents a year, and all of them have formulas.
I experimented with installed and portable versions of OpenOffice in my Windows, and installed Open/LibreOffice in my Linux Mint. No. If my documents edited in LibreOffice looks good in the LibreOffice, than them looks ugly in “big brother” MSOffice. At my work we have MSWindows7 Corporate Edition, and MSOffice 2010 Corporation too. These fu@#$ing corporate standards! If I created/edited any document at my Open/LibreOffice and send if forth to my work server, it broke this document. I see slightly another paddings and margins, and ugly small formulas with big white paddings. Yes, I can re-edit it in MSOffice, it's not too hard: click-click formula, click outside formula. In most cases, it cures my formulas. But! Time! Attention!
Several times, formulas are “locked” to non-edited state. Them only shows, but they shows only like non-edited vector images.
At every year-end I have a lot of work with my documents, it's mostly, calculations for next year. And this year I'll not experimented with offices ☺
Again, thanks, gibor! Have a nice day!
