I have had openoffice working in the past but it seems to break often 
and I gfo through hell getting it back up. Against my better judgement, 
I upgraded to 1.0.3 today and sho 'nuff, it's borked. Itry to run 
oosetup as user and I get complaints that it can't find files in 
/home/USER/.openoffice. Doing:
/home/ernie/.openoffice/1.0.3/setup opens the setup but that fails 
trying to copy files to /home/USER/.kde2 (yup, running 3.1.2). I tried 
renaming the .kde2 dir but that didn.t do it
        Rummaging around a bit, I find/home/ernie/.openoffice/1.0.3/instdb.ins  
that contains several sections like:
Directory gid_Dir_Kde2
        ParentID         = PREDEFINED_HOMEDIR;
        HostName         = ".kde2";
I'm guessing that this is my problem.How can I fix this?
