OpenOffice 2.0 - Manual Installation

[Alfred Vahau]

This is strange. /usr/bin/openoffice.org-2.0 does not exist and I've 
manually scanned that directory to confirm.

Going into the root directory / I issued

find . -name "openoffice.org*" -print

and this returns all paths with openoffice.org in then but there is 
nothing to suggest an executable file that can fire up openoffice2.0.

I will continue the search for the executable.

Where are the executables stored in the absence of a traditional install 
via confgure, make, make install?

Alfred,
