Dear friends:

[Using Scientific Linux, based on RHEL4]

I have just downloaded the source code for Koffice. But before I install 
it, I would appreciate some information.

Scientific Linux is a derivate of RHEL4. It recompiled RHEL4 from 
source. In addition, unlike RHEL's stripped down version of KDE,  it 
give us the full-fledged version of KDE 3.3.1-3.10.

I was told by tech support at SL that installing Koffice might cause 
some problems. I can see how this could be the case with installing 
binaries. But what about installing from source code? Is there any way 
this could cause problems to a linux OS? Any conflicts of any sort? Even 
things like messing up the menus? Or does installing from source by its 
nature produce a clean customized install that does not conflict with 
one's system?

Thank you so much.

Benjamin
