I was wondering if there is a place where I can download a pet for LibreOffice. I eventually want all of my computers to have this but the one running Puppy needs a pet. I went to this page:
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/LibreOffice
but could not find the actual pet file to download. I got checksum downloaded and installed, though. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.
A pet for LibreOffice?
Re: A pet for LibreOffice?
Realistically, it would have to be a sfs file, not a pet, because LibreOffice is very big!Emporata wrote:I was wondering if there is a place where I can download a pet for LibreOffice. I eventually want all of my computers to have this but the one running Puppy needs a pet. I went to this page:

Several of us have tried to create a sfs file but failed to get it working.

This will work in LuPu 5.1.1
1 Download:
http://download.documentfoundation.org/ ... -US.tar.gz
2 Unpack the file on your harddisk (not in your puppy-safe-file) and unrpm the files.
(unrpm-pet: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=27067)
3 Go to the new map "en-US/RPMS" and do this in a terminal:
Wait a minute and a new map "opt" will be there with "libreoffice3" in it..
4 Make a symlink of the map "libreoffice3" to /opt
(To safe space in your safe-file)
5 Start Libreoffice with: /opt/libreoffice3/program/soffice

Edit There is also a .deb file of Libre. With that file you don't need the unrpm.pet and the code in step 3 is "for f in *.deb; do undeb $f; done"

Re: A pet for LibreOffice?
I have working .pets and .sfs files for the latest OpenOffice and LibreOffice. Will post links as soon as I get hosting sorted. Menu entries are included.Emporata wrote:I was wondering if there is a place where I can download a pet for LibreOffice.
