Please Install the Updated Packages.

This update provides a new upstream version of OpenOffice.org - 2.4.1.10. It also corrects the following bugs: Under 2.4 versions of OpenOffice.org, the Orientation option was removed from printer properties which prevented users from printing on a booklet format in a way they were used to do. This OpenOffice.org update enables the Orientation printer option again. Another problem was on OpenOffice.org application start up which was hanging when LDAP authentication is enabled on x86_64 machines. OpenOffice.org tried to access info about logged on user name but it did not provide the right parameters to the libnss_ldap library. As a work around, we have forced the installation of the i586 package of that library. This update stops OpenOffice.org from obtaining running user information on LDAP authentication since it does not block sensible working features. Another bug fixed in this update is the handling of text and numbers on cells that are aligned on a different position degree as usual, such as 90 degrees. This caused information on that cell being showed in such a way that numbers got a different degree than alphabetic characters.
