(Newebie.) Adept, Synaptic and OpenOffice: still unpredictable installation results.

[Donn]

Bas, I don't really use ooo but here are some thoughts.
Go to: [/usr/lib/openoffice/help] and see what's installed. If there are files 
there (under dirs like 'en' and 'nl') then it's at least installed.

Next, check your language settings in the system settings - perhaps ooffice 
cannot find your locale.  If you press F1 in ooo, do you get any help at all?
