OpenOffice.org menu entries missing in FC5

[nwinkler]

After upgrading both of my FC4 machines to FC5 (one KDE, one Gnome), the menu entries for all of the OpenOffice.org applications are missing. I can start the apps from command line, the installed version is 2.0.2.

Is there a way to get the menu entries back without creating them by hand?

Thanks,

Nils

i experienced the same problem

download openoffice from the openocce site
doubleclick on it and copy the folder RPMS to your download dir.
copy also openoffice.org-redhat-menus-2.0.2-3.noarch.rpm into that same directory

install by
rpm -Uvh --force *.*

Do you have the "redhat-menus" package installed?

[Evert]

yes,, i have

i have also this in my yum.conf.>>

exclude= azureus openoffice.org-base openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-draw openoffice.org-emailmerge openoffice.org-graphicfilter openoffice.org-impress openoffice.org-javafilter openoffice.org-math openoffice.org-pyuno openoffice.org-writer openoffice.org-xsltfilter

because if you update openoffice, it will be a messedup again
