Hello!

> > I have downloaded the source for OpenOffice from AARNET twice now and

Whilst I'm told I shouldn't run tar as root (hehe), can someone please have the
tar builds built with owner bin:bin (which is likely to exist on a Linux based
system).
That way, if someone does untar the source as root it won't produce this odd
error...

Add -o to the tar command options
:-)

As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved
