RHBA-2005:665 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated openoffice.org package that fixes RTF file display and KDE/GNOME
desktop integration bugs is now available

Description

OpenOffice.org is an Open Source, community-developed, multi-platform
office productivity suite. It includes the key desktop applications,
such as a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation manager, formula
editor and drawing program, with a user interface and feature set
similar to other office suites.

This update contains fixes to RTF file support, KDE and GNOME desktop
integration, and Indic language display.

Users of OpenOffice.org who work with RTF files, for whom an Indic language
is their primary language, or who access documents from shared directories
via Gnome VFS, are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
