From Binary Packages

From Binary Packages

To install KOffice from precompiled binaries, you should:

  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 (Redhat Package Management file), KOffice can be installed with the following command: 

    $ rpm -U filename
    If the filename 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 command: 
    $ 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.
