I finished updating those packages and subsequently installed several hundred megabytes of additional packages required. At least one optional package itself requires compiling. Installing Mandriva "2007" may be the most efficient path, however. I understand that seerofsouls.com will have KOffice 1.6.0 for the later version of Mandriva within the next few days. I now have a DVD to install Powerpack "2007". I'm going to devote my spare time in the near future to finishing off my Sabayon installation because that should give me a system which I can keep updating and upgrading without having to do a fresh OS installation every 12 months or so just so that I can keep / get my software up to date. Emerge should enable me to install the latest KOffice. Thanks to everyone who has replied. -- If you're seeking, check out http://www.rci.org.au ____________________________________ koffice mailing list koffice@kde.org To unsubscribe please visit: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/koffice
