-or community repositories which they support. These packages have
-been built and are supported by the distributions' own teams or community members, not by
-Apache OpenOffice. Some distributions have strict policies around licensing,
-which means they have chosen to disable parts of Apache OpenOffice which rely
-on software which does not meet their criteria (e.g. the Fedora rpms have
-disabled the parts of Apache OpenOffice which require Java).</p>

-<h3>Packages for Linux Distributions (Not compiled by Apache OpenOffice developers)
-<a name="other_linux"></a></h3>
-
-<p>Many Linux distributions now include a version of Apache OpenOffice in their
-own native package manager format (.rpm, .deb, etc.). These packages have
-been built and are supported by the distributions' own teams, not by
-Apache OpenOffice. Some distributions have strict policies around licensing,
-which means they have chosen to disable parts of Apache OpenOffice which rely
-on software which does not meet their criteria (e.g. the Fedora rpms have
-disabled the parts of Apache OpenOffice which require Java).</p>
-<p><b>Note:</b> Please check carefully before using a third-party build that
-it does actually include all the parts of Apache OpenOffice that you will
-require. Replacing a 'native' distribution build with the full Apache OpenOffice
-original build can be tricky, but can usually be successfully accomplished by
-completely removing the existing 'native' install. </p>
