From Binary Packages

From Binary Packages

To install KOffice from precompiled binaries, you should:

Procedure A.1.

  1. Ensure your computer has all of the required software installed and in working condition (excluding KOffice of course). You can find the system requirements by following this link: System Requirements.

  2. Download the KOffice binary into a temporary directory.

  3. If the filename ends in .rpm (Red Hat® Package Management file), KOffice can be installed with the following command:

    $
    rpm-Ufilename
    .

    If thefilename ends in .deb (Debian Package file), KOffice can be installed with the following command:

    $ dpkg-i
    filename

    If the filename ends in .tar.gz or .tgz (a tarball file), KOffice can be installed with the following commands:

    $ cd /
    $ tar -xzvf filename
    
  4. That's all. KOffice should now be installed on your system.

Note

If you have a graphical front-end for package management, such as KPackage or GnoRPM, installed on your system, you may find that more convenient to use than a command line. Consult the program's documentation to find out how to install with it.
